The theory includes both repetition and in-depth study of:

aerodynamics and aeronautics
meteorology and advanced weather assessments
advanced flight maneuvers and critical situations
thermal and long-distance flying
airspace and regulations

In addition, we focus on risk analysis, decision-making and mental factors that affect flying – important parts of being able to fly safely and responsibly.

The practical training works more like an examination where you get to show your experience and skills as a pilot.
