INTERNATIONAL
EDUCATION
As part of their education, students at GreyBird Pilot Academy
get the opportunity to fly internationally. In addition to flights to
neighboring countries, the education program also gives you a
chance to go to other GreyBird bases for weeks at a time.
Swedish and Danish students visit Spain during wintertime and
avoid fighting the freezing flying conditions in this region, while
the Spanish students get to fly in actual IMC conditions in
Scandinavia during summer, in addition, they get to spend flight
hours in single-engine aircraft.
Training in other countries than your own has many benefits; the
culture is different, and as a pilot student, you will learn about
the challenges that come with being based in another country.
The local shops' opening hours are different, and the people
you meet in the streets do not necessarily speak English, but
you will have to find a way to communicate.
In addition, the terrains in the different areas are very different.
This adds a whole new dimension to flying for the students.
For Spanish students, training in Scandinavia means water and
changing weather. For Scandinavian students, training in Spain
means terrain and a different ATC or local aircraft
communicating in Spanish. In addition, the students get a
chance to bond with their classmates while they are away and
meet new friends who also wear GreyBird uniforms. There are
no distractions when you are away – “just” a lot of flying,
classmates and new exciting things to learn.
