Making the decision to begin your flight training journey, while an exciting one, is also a big step and we want to make sure our future students are not only comfortable in a training aircraft but also that they have the knowledge to make an informed decision before enrolling. That’s why our introduction to flight package has proven to be the very best way to make that decision.
Our introduction to flight package which includes a check flight assessment is absolutely perfect for individuals that are totally new to aviation and was developed in place of classroom-based aptitude tests generally seen as the normal way of accessing your abilities in other flight training schools. This assessment is carried out by one of our flight training school partners on behalf of Pilot Path. At Pilot Path, we want you to have first-hand experience defying gravity before deciding if a career in the skies is for you. You will complete a flight brief and debrief with flight school instructors encompassing all safety and operational procedures information before and after your flight. This package will help you find out the ins and outs of how the aircraft works and is maintained while fully contributing to your decision to take the next step in your flying career.
As part of your introduction to flight package, your engagement manager will schedule a full one to one follow up on all aspects of modular commercial flight training, details on our partner locations, pricing options and how we can get you enrolled successfully & begin to guide you along the way.



I never thought pilot training was a realistic option until I was introduced to the Pilot Path team. They made the whole process so simple and easy to understand. Within a year I completed the first stage of commercial flight training and gained my private pilot licence all while working a full-time, self employed schedule and juggling family life. Highly recommend!
I always knew I wanted to become a pilot but never knew where to start. The guys at Pilot Path have shown me a route from start to finish and since joining last year I now have my PPL and am working towards a commercial licence.
I can’t recommend Pilot Path enough to anyone who is considering starting flying training! I was always eager to start my flight training, but as a student at SETU Carlow I was put off by the high prices associated. Pilot Path made everything easy to understand from day one and provided real clarity. Making monthly payments helped me realise that not only was this now accessible, but it really helped keep me on track with my training and ultimately led to me getting my license!
