Timeline

The Professional Seaplane Pilot Program has been designed for a target completion time line of 45 days.

Due to the nature of seaplane operations, the time of year and weather will, to some degree, dictate the time required to complete the program. The target timeline is based on a planned 25 flight days, consisting of 50 hours of flight time.

The ground-based operational training course is completed alongside the training program, and will consist of an initial ground school portion, then 17 operational classes each approximately 80 minutes in duration, for a total of 25 hours of ground school.
