Palomar Aviation is proud to introduce our Private Pilot Ground School, a structured, instructor-led program designed to prepare students for success on the path to earning their Private Pilot License (PPL). Each immersive three-hour session covers the core knowledge areas required by the Federal Aviation Regulations (FAR), with focused instruction aligned to the Airman Certification Standards (ACS), the Pilot’s Handbook of Aeronautical Knowledge (PHAK), and other essential FAA resources.

Ideal for student pilots at any stage of training, this program provides a clear, organized framework to master the academic foundations of flight. All sessions are held at Palomar Aviation at KCRQ. Attendees will receive the following learning materials —

  • Airman Certification Standards (ACS)
  • Federal Aviation Regulations (FAR)
  • Pilot Handbook of Aeronautical Knowledge (PHAK)

To celebrate the launch, Palomar Aviation is offering an introductory rate of $100 per session (regularly $150), delivering exceptional value through expert instruction in a collaborative classroom environment.
