What are your hours of operation?

Our office hours (including aircraft dispatch & pilot shop) are from 7:30am to 5:30pm, 7 days a week. Our fuel trucks and line service are available from 6:00am to 8:00pm, 7 days a week.

How long does it take to earn a Pilot's license?

This is a tricky question to answer due to many variables. Each student pilot learns at a different pace, and progress and retention is largely based on how frequently the student flies. Flight time, ground lessons, and personal study all contribute to the timeline. If a student flies 3 times a week and is dedicated to studying the material, a reasonable timeline to earn a Private Pilot’s license can be 3 to 4 months. Learn more

How much does it cost to earn a Pilot's license?

Total cost can vary widely based on a student’s learning pace and availability. There’s also a wide range of hourly rates for different aircraft types. At Chandler Air Service, Private training is done in a Piper Archer, and you can expect the total to reach about $14,500 dollars from start to finish. Unlike many flight schools, we do not charge this up front. All lessons are pay-as-you-go at your own pace. Learn more about our flight training programs

May I fly at Chandler Air Service if I live outside the U.S.?

Certainly! We are approved by the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) for flight training and the Student Exchange and Visitors Information System (SEVIS) for issuing the Immigration I-20 form for the M-1 student visa for flight training. Learn more
