NAC, 43 Air School and Piper Aircraft Inc. is offering new Archer LX customers their own private pilot training at 43 Air School. The Piper Ready, Set, Fly program helps new aircraft owners learn to fly safely and efficiently, and promotes growth in general aviation by encouraging people to become pilots.
"Piper's Archer LX Ready, Set, Fly program solves several of the common detractors to successfully learning to fly, according to recent AOPA independent research," says Piper Executive Vice President Randy Groom. The AOPA study indicated that those detractors were lack of convenience, the quality of instruction at some facilities, and scheduling hassles that hinder progress for prospective student pilots.
The Ready, Set, Fly program addresses the convenience issue head on, because the standardized training course will be offered in a highly concentrated course, with a dedicated, professional instructor from 43 Air School, Africa's premier Aviation Training Organisation.
Zero Time to Private Pilot
The custom program created specifically for Piper Archer LX owners will enable them to go from zero time to completion of their private pilot training safely, efficiently and efficiently. This training program emphasizes NAC, 43 Air School and Piper's commitment to help build the aviation industry by providing a safe, professional entry-level pilot-learning environment.
"Piper's Archer LX Ready, Set, Fly program was created specifically as a means to introduce aspiring pilots to aviation through the Piper product line by giving them an opportunity to step in and step up as their flying career progresses," says Groom. Ready, Set, Fly further illustrates Piper's continuing commitment to the light aircraft segment and to the critical general aviation mission of attracting new pilots to the industry.
