It has never been a better time to become an airline pilot. There is a severe worldwide pilot shortage and airlines are giving out huge signing bonuses.

At Sling Pilot Academy, our Professional Pilot Course stands out for its holistic teaching approach, where we try to help all students across the finish line to make it to their dream career. We leverage the industry-renowned King Schools curriculum, complemented by daily guided discussion group ground school classes. And our “Under My Wing” mentor program truly sets us apart. This fusion of top-tier curriculum, interactive learning, and individual mentorship shapes well-rounded pilots, equipped not only with technical prowess but also essential soft skills vital for a thriving aviation career. Add to this our state-of-the-art Sling NGT training aircraft and you have a recipe for success.

We will help you get all of your FAA Certificates and Ratings in modern, fun airplanes. You don’t need to take your training in a 40-yr old airplane – you can start in a brand new airplane with a glass cockpit. And learn to fly near the beach in one of the most coveted parts of the world – Southern California. Become an airline pilot – start your flight training now!
