What's Holding You Back
We Answer the Hard Questions
Every aspiring pilot has the same fears. This training addresses every single one — directly and honestly.
"I don't know what flight training actually costs."
We give you transparent, pricing across all three programs — with real ranges, no minimums, and zero hidden fees. All FAA testing and checkride costs included upfront.
"I can't afford it."
We'll walk through Stratus Financial financing in detail — monthly payment estimates, approval process, and the guided concierge session that comes with every enrollment.
"I don't know where to begin."
This training is the roadmap. By the time it ends you'll have a clear picture of every phase from your first flight lesson all the way to your first airline seat.
"What if I fail the FAA medical exam?"
We address this directly in the training. Most conditions people worry about don't disqualify you. We also handle medical exam guidance in Week 1 of every program — before you spend a dollar on flight time.
"I have a job — I don't have time to train."
Our 1-on-1 scheduling means you train around your life. Morning, evenings, weekends. Our students stay employed throughout. You don't quit your job to fly at AGA.
"Is this actually a viable career in 2025?"
The data says yes — louder than ever. 24,000 pilot shortage by 2026. Regional first officer starting salary: $80k–$120k. Major airline captains: $300k–$400k+. We'll show you exactly why now is the time.

STILL NOT SURE?
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need any experience to watch this training?
None whatsoever. This training is built for people at the very beginning — curious about flying but not sure where to start. No aviation background is required at all.
Is this really free?
Yes — 100% free. There's nothing to purchase to access the training. You'll also receive our free Pilot Training Starter Guide just for registering.
How long is the training?
Approximately 60 minutes. You can pause and resume it at any time since it's on-demand. Watch it in one sitting or spread it across a few sessions — it's yours to keep.
I'm worried I might not pass the FAA medical. Should I still watch?
Absolutely yes. We address the medical exam directly in the training. Most conditions people worry about don't disqualify you — and many that seem disqualifying have available exemptions. We also cover how AGA handles medical guidance in Week 1 of every program, before you spend a single dollar on flight time.
What happens after I watch?
At the end of the training, you'll have the option to book a free 30-minute enrollment call with a flight training advisor. On that call we'll identify the right program for your goals, walk through financing options, and answer any remaining questions. No pressure and no obligation — just the information you need.
I have a full-time job. Can I realistically do this?
Yes — and you're not unusual. Many of our students train while employed full-time. Our 1-on-1 scheduling means sessions happen when you're available: early mornings, evenings, weekends. You don't quit your job to train at Aero Global.
