B: Discovery Flights Information
Our Discovery Flights allow interested people the opportunity to get first-hand knowledge and experience the sensation of flying with the assistance of a certified pilot. These flights are meant to be educational and informative, geared towards those who may be on the fence about pursuing a pilot’s license program. While on a Discovery Flight in Waterbury, you are even given the opportunity to briefly control the aircraft.
C: Sport Flying License
The Sport License training course enables you to fly Light Sport Aircraft (LSA), which will grant you a limited license; with this license come various other restrictions, such as limiting which airspace you may fly within, the amount of passengers you may carry, and the conditions during which you may fly. This is generally the first step to furthering your flying repertoire.
D: Private Pilot License
You may acquire a Private Pilot License through our Pilot Training program, which enables you to have more perks than the Sport License, such as the ability to fly out-of-country and command larger aircraft. This option is necessary for those who wish to obtain a Commercial License, as one of the prerequisites is the possession of a valid Private Pilot License.
E: Commercial Pilot License
Commercial Pilot Licenses are also available for acquisition at our Waterbury location. With a Commercial License, many of the limits present in the lower licenses are lifted, and you become eligible for receiving income and carrying passengers who have paid for the flight. With this license come many additional career opportunities outside of merely piloting aircraft, including managerial and instructor positions.
F: Airline Transport License
Our other Pilot Training programs can help you prepare for your Airline Transport License, which will allow you to fly commercially as a First or Second Officer on flights. The Airline Transport License is awarded after multiple individual licenses are acquired, and after a set amount of flight hours are reached, and has the requirement of a Class One Medical. This is the highest license that can be attained at our Waterbury location.
G: Gift Certificates
At Flydar in Waterbury, we encourage you to bring the chance of flight to your friends and family. We offer gift certificates for our Discovery Flights that are valid for up to two years after purchase, so they are perfect for special occasions and holidays. Help your loved ones discover if their passion for flight has been grounded all along and send them off for a memorable experience.

Pt1: Discovery Flights
Learn About Aviation with Discovery Flights
Discover the thrill of flying with Flydar’s Discovery Flights. Our Waterbury location offers our clients the ability to fly with an experienced pilot and learn the basics of aviation. From the very start of the process, you will essentially be a co-pilot on the flight: you will learn how to examine the aircraft and complete a routine inspection, observe the control panel and be taught the various functions of the instruments, and may even be given the chance to actually pilot the aircraft. Our instructors are all Commercially Licensed pilots or certified flight instructors who are more than willing to answer any questions you have about being in the cockpit of an aircraft.
Flydar is Waterbury’s best choice for services for interested or beginner pilots. Not only are you treated to a breathtaking aerial view of the city and given an overview of how to pilot an aircraft, but if you do choose to continue with flying lessons, then you may be eligible for the time taken during a Discovery Flight to be added onto your total hours. Having a certificate of flight may help you enter the cockpit of your next flight with boosted confidence and a relaxed mind.
This is a potentially eye-opening service that will allow you to determine whether or not piloting an aircraft is interesting to you. If it turns out you do not have any enthusiasm in pursuing aviation, you will at least be treated to a unique aerial view of Waterbury, able to witness such quintessential landmarks as the Union Station Clocktower and Exchange Place. Please take note that your pilot may elect not to fly over the city, but on its outskirts; you will still be treated to a scenic landscape, albeit one that is more rustic than suburban.

Pt2: Sport Pilot SPL
Flying for Sport and Recreation – Sport Pilot License
The Sport Pilot License (SPL) is the lowest initial license granted to aviation pilots. Flydar’s Pilot Training in Waterbury has courses designed to give you the best instruction and education for acquiring an SPL, whether you want one for enjoyable purposes or as a stepping stone. The license is not a difficult one to obtain, as it requires the least amount of training and flight hours logged, but it is essential for forward progress in aviation; for instance, you may acquire an SPL with 20 hours of flight (15 assisted, 5 unassisted).
The requirements for the SPL are simple and accessible by most eligible applicants. Flydar accepts men and women who are at least 17 years of age (this is reduced to 16 if you are interested in operating gliders and/or hot air balloons), are fluent in English (write, read, speak, understand), and hold a third class or better medical or a current valid United States driver’s license (the latter only necessary for aircraft). Equally as important is the lack of anything prohibiting you from operating a Light Sport Aircraft (LSA).
For as light as the eligibility requirements are for the SPL, the training requirements are equally light, as trainees require only ten takeoffs and landings at full stops, a single solo cross-country flight of 75 nautical miles, practical test training, and ground training. Flydar’s instructors will be alongside you offering guidance and instruction every step of the way.
In acquiring an SPL, you are limited to flying LSA and only at certain times of day and altitudes. The full list of limitations will be explained to you, but you can enjoy the capabilities of solo flying and practice for further flying lessons, as well as being able to transport a maximum of one passenger (with further restrictions).

Pt3: Private Pilot License
Private License and its Restrictions and Guidelines
Flydar’s Pilot Training in Waterbury also offers additional training for acquisition of a Private Pilot License (PPL). We are the best in the area, giving comprehensive lessons and hands-on training to help you pass your written and practical flight tests. After 40 hours of training, you can rest assured that you will have received the highest quality preparation possible, and will be well on your way to becoming a decorated pilot.
The PPL is a prerequisite for acquiring a Commercial Pilot’s License. Therefore, if you want to go further into aviation, this option is for you, as it allows you to start the path to commercial flight. Gaining a PPL shares some of the same eligibility requirements as the SPL, such as age and language standards, but requires even more flight hours logged. We operate under and according to FAA standards, and any tests are administered by certified inspectors or examiners.
There are fewer restrictions accompanying the PPL in comparison to the SPL: with your PPL, you may fly at night, fly in higher airspaces, and have multiple passengers on board the aircraft. You also may receive compensation if it is meant to share the operating expenses of the aircraft (for example, to cover fuel, rental, and oil fees). Essentially, you are able to provide services with a PPL that you cannot receive direct reimbursement for, but can have service costs alleviated.
For all prospective pilots in the Waterbury area, we at Flydar encourage you to embark on our Pilot Training program for your Private License. There is no better or more cost-effective option in town; our students have gone on to fly various aircraft at different levels of clearance, and we want to help you ascend to where you want to be as well.

The Satisfaction of Teaching with a PPL
A Private Pilot’s License does not only carry forward-acquisition purposes with it, but allows you to entertain yourself in myriad new ways and broaden your horizons in your career pursuits.
One such pursuit is becoming a flight instructor for other young, prospective pilots like you yourself once were, perhaps even returning to the Waterbury skies you were once eager to traverse. Not all pilots are suited for commercial flight or have the desire to further their licenses, and instructing others to fly is a worthwhile endeavor that provides you with the joys of teaching in an entirely novel way. We at Flydar owe a lot to the teachers, professors, and instructors who guided us onto our paths and instilled in us that feeling of accomplishment and the desire for success – you too can help pilots along and assist them in achieving their goals.
To become a flight instructor, you will need to have accumulated 20 hours of flight training. Beyond that, your teaching abilities and passion for flying will begin to take over, and you will find yourself keen to get other people into the skies.
For the more passionate pilots, you may even be interested in private teaching lessons, as there are numerous people who wish to learn to fly on their own time. It’s like tutoring, except in the air!
Further, flight instructors enjoy multiple benefits attached to the career itself. There is seldom a time when flight instructors are not in demand or needed at a facility, and you will have job security with the added bonus of working a job you love. In essence, you earn a salary by flying – an enviable position for anyone to be in, made better by your love of the sky.
CTA: Call 1-800-555-5555 to give others the joy of learning.
Pt4: Commercial Pilot License
More Limits and Less Restrictions with a CPL
Flydar offers the most in-depth pilot training for those who wish to gain an even higher leveled license in the form of the Commercial Pilot’s License (CPL). As we have experts who train pilots of all levels, our programs are guaranteed to get you in the skies.
Pilots who wish to acquire a CPL are looking at a lifetime of possibilities and opportunities that go along with it. On the career side, you are able to command aircraft and receive compensation from passengers for transporting them from location to location (charter pilot, air taxi, corporate piloting), be a skywriter or flight instructor. You are able to travel the world via the skies, and you have the credentials to prove it.
As the CPL lifts many restrictions and regulations present on the other licenses, it is fitting that its eligibility requirements are also slightly more stringent. You must be of legal age, have passed the Federal Aviation Administration knowledge test, possess a Private Pilot’s License, and have logged 250 hours of flight time. You also must have a third-class medical certificate and have passed the practical flight exam after the FAA’s written test. Fittingly, with all of these prerequisites and tests, you will see that most restrictions are then lifted, and you may fly at any time of the day in multiple airspaces, amongst other benefits.
Essentially, in chasing a CPL, you are striving to be the safest, most experienced version of a pilot that you can be, and your passengers will be grateful that you have provided them with a better flight.

The Inspiring Heroics of Pilots
Even though aviation is a relatively safe mode of transportation, all pilots are still expected to be able to keep themselves calm under pressure, act according to the accepted standards and guidelines of their airlines, and protect the passengers on board their aircrafts. There have been times that the day is quite literally saved by the pilots in charge, thus ensuring that the passengers remained safe and sound and could fly again.
A fairly recent example is the crash that occurred in Great Britain with British Airways Flight 38 being unable to receive proper fuel. The captain and co-pilot were forced to land the plane short of the runway in an emergency landing, and no passengers were severely injured.
However, this feat was overshadowed by Chesley Sullenberger’s emergency landing in the Hudson River, which occurred the following year. It was breaking news, followed across the country, and showcased a pilot keeping a cool head when faced with a potentially devastating situation. After striking a flock of Canadian geese, the aircraft Sullenberger was piloting lost its thrust features in the engines, and he was forced to make a quick decision and force-land the plane in the water.
Due to his skills and training, Sullenberger’s efforts allowed all of the passengers and crew aboard the plane – over 150 people – to escape the crash unharmed. It was an amazing feat, and Sullenberger was regaled as a national hero for his actions, receiving praise from politicians and communities across the United States.
Though aviation has many forms, pilots can always fall back on the idea that they are, in essence, helping people in one way or another – from providing transportation and assisting in overcoming fears to showing off the country side and instructing others how to fly.
Above all, they are keeping their passengers safe.
Pt5: Airline Transport Pilot
Fly at the Highest Level Possible
At the apex of pilot licenses floats the Airline Transport Pilot’s License (ATP). It is the highest level license offered that isn’t militarily linked, and allows you to pilot commercial jets for various airline companies. You are not authorized to do so without an ATP. Additionally, possessing an ATP means you will likely be the pilot-in-charge of a large aircraft, and you have options as to what planes you want to pilot.
Because of this lofty acquisition, the requirements are even higher than they are for any other license. You must be 21 with a CPL and an Instrument rating, be certified through an ATP program (consisting of written, oral, and physical exams), and have 1500 hours of flight time logged. Thus, obtaining an ATP shows that you have dedicated a ton of time to aviation, and you are serious about this path.
Though Flydar’s pilot training is a great way to achieve various licenses, from the SPL to the CPL, we are the singular best choice for acquiring your ATP. Our trainers and training programs are designed to give you all of the knowledge you need to succeed in the sky.
An ATP yields even greater career opportunities and more potential income and fame. Beyond being able to pilot jets for big-name corporate airlines, you also have the opportunity to run private charter services for the more privileged members of society. These opportunities can lead to long-lasting careers and job security, while also allowing you to enjoy flying as much as you always have.

The Changing Speed of the Skies
Aviation has come a long way from the early 20th century, when the Wright brothers first took to the skies. In just a few decades, engineers and scientists have moved from short-term flights that functioned more as gliders to high-speed jets capable of breaking the sound barrier. This marvel of technology is nothing short of incredible, and to truly appreciate it, a comparison must be made.
Most modern commercial jets – the kind you board at your local airports – travel at around 500 to 600 mph. You can fly from one end of the United States to the other in nearly 6 hours at these speeds, and passengers are generally comfortable while inside; they do not need any sort of training or screening in order to deal with the speed. As G force became more prominent, and mach speeds were reached quicker than anything previously, pilots started to undergo training to adequately prepare for such unnatural speeds.
It was a steady process and climb, as jets began to be used more often in wars and experiments and scientists were pushing the limits of flight with each passing decade.
Around the middle of the century, aviation had progressed to the point that breaking the sound barrier was becoming easier and easier. Eventually, in the 1960s, an aircraft named the North American X-15 was created, being able to be propelled up to breakneck speeds in the quadruple digits. The record speed it reached was mach 6.70 – or around 4500 mph.
That means while your friends are traveling from California to New York in 6 hours, you’re making that same trip almost 6 times over, being able to go coast to coast in about 45 minutes.
Talk about a quick trip.
Pt6: Gift Certificates
The Gift of Flight for a Loved One
Flydar knows that giving a loved one the gift of flight is a present unlike any other. A friend or a family member may have expressed interest in aviation, perhaps from a young age, yet lacks the means or knowledge to embark on the first step towards flight.
We offer gift certificates for our Discovery Flights to help you give someone a chance at taking to the skies. They are great gifts for all occasions: holidays, birthdays, anniversaries, weddings, or even as surprises out of the blue, enticing someone to take a risk and go somewhere he has never gone before.
Our gift certificates are not limiting – they are not locked in to the location you purchase it from (although transferring the certificate to a new location may incur a small fee), they are not able to only be used by the initial recipient, and they are valid for up to two years following the purchase. The right time to fly may not have come yet, but it will in the future, and when it does, a Discovery Flight will be waiting.
Purchasing a gift certificate for a Discovery Flight is simple. Our customer service representatives handle the sales aspect and are available for transactions, questions, and concerns 7 days a week. They will be more than happy to assist you with any queries you have regarding the details of the gift certificate itself, as well as anything regarding the flight, its procedure, the scheduling, and so on.
