Steps to Enrollment

Thank you for considering the Colorado Flight Center for your flight training. Our wide range of options makes us the perfect training center for students across all phases of learning. There are a few steps to take when applying for one of our pilot school programs.

​​

STEP 1 - Meet with an Advisor/Take a Flight

The first is to meet with someone from our leadership team to learn about the program and make sure we are the best fit for you! If you've already decided to fly with us, then scheduling a Discovery Flight is the next thing to do.

 

STEP 2 - FAA Medical Exam

All pilots must be medically cleared by an FAA AME (Aviation Medical Examiner) before they can legally be PIC (Pilot-in-command).

While not technically required to begin flight training, you will need your medical before you start your solo work, so we highly recommend getting at least a 3rd class medical before your training begins. 

For those looking to become private pilots, a 3rd class medical is sufficient. For anyone looking to make flying their career, we recommend getting a 1st class medical, so that you have peace of mind that you can obtain one when you need to as your career takes off. To obtain a medical, follow the steps below - â€‹â€‹â€‹

1. Become familiar with the medical conditions and medications that can disqualify you from obtaining an FAA Medical Certificate.

2. Fill out the FAA MedXpress Application.

​​3. Find an Aviation Medical Examiner near you and sign up for an appointment. 

 

STEP 3 - Paperwork and Documents

When coming in for a meeting with us/preparing for your flight training to begin, make sure you have the following documents with you:​​

  • A valid Driver's License

  • A TSA citizenship ID - A passport or US Birth Certificate/Naturalization document

  • Your Pilot's Licenses and Medical Certificate (only if you have already obtained them and are working on an advanced rating/recurrent training)
