A CHOICE FOR LIFE!<br />
Your choice of pilot school may be the most important choice of your career. Thus, examine the market<br />
carefully. It is important that you choose a school at which you can see yourself spending hundreds of<br />
hours and where you meet people you trust. Most importantly, you should choose a pilot academy<br />
which you believe will help you to become the best version of yourself. It is crucial that you believe that<br />
the staff is competent, and it is equally important that you consider yourself in good hands both<br />
financially as well as security-wise.<br />
At GreyBird, professional competences, security and safety are our most important parameters. For that<br />
reason, we do not focus only on practical skills; an important part of the education is the development of<br />
your attitude as well as the competences that enable you to make the right decisions in stressful<br />
situations.<br />
WE FLY GREEN<br />
At GreyBird, we fly in state-of-the-art Tecnam<br />
airplanes. The airplanes are both designed and<br />
manufactured in the current millennium. Not<br />
only that; they are green, using only 15-20 liters<br />
of fuel per hour per engine, and they make very<br />
little noise compared to older types. The aircraft<br />
can fly on unleaded fuel.<br />

THE BEST FUTURE PILOTS<br />
With the Tecnam planes, GreyBird offers a product<br />
not yet matched in the European aviation industry.<br />
We offer more complex flying lessons in modern<br />
aircraft at the same price as you will find in less<br />
attractive programmes. A pilot who has recently<br />
graduated from GreyBird has a total of 205 flying<br />
hours – 137 of which are flown in state-of-the-art<br />
Tecnam planes. We believe that this gives you the<br />
best education and the best stepping-stone for your<br />
future career. In the final module of the education,<br />
you will spend 40 hours in an FNPT II MCC Airbus<br />
A320 simulator. In this part of the education, you<br />
will complete your APS MCC course, which must be<br />
completed in a simulator.<br />
When you graduate from GreyBird, you will have<br />
flown 62 hours in a real multi-engine airplane, and<br />
in addition, you will have spent 25 hours in our<br />
procedure simulator which is an exact replica of the<br />
aircraft. When you are investigating your flight<br />
academy options, pay close attention to the number<br />
of hours of real flying time in real multi-engine<br />
airplanes. Frequently, a considerable part takes<br />
place in a simulator that is different from the<br />
aircraft, and even more often, many flight training<br />
organizations use single-engine aircraft to conduct<br />
IFR training. It is cheaper, but it provides negative<br />
training and is less valuable than multi-engine<br />
training.
