At Aviation Academy Scotland, we understand that learning to fly is a challenging yet rewarding journey. If you find yourself struggling at any stage of your training, we have multiple support options to help you stay on track and build confidence.

1. One-on-One Instructor Support

  • Our instructors are committed to your success and will provide individual coaching tailored to your needs.

  • If you’re finding a specific area difficult, you can request extra briefings or a customised lesson plan to focus on key areas.

2. Extra Ground School Assistance

  • If you need help with theory subjects, we offer additional ground school sessions and online learning resources.

  • Our instructors can help clarify complex topics and provide study guidance to improve your understanding.

3. Additional Flight Training Sessions

  • If you need more practice with certain manoeuvres or procedures, we can schedule additional flying hours to reinforce your skills.

4. Progress Reviews and Mentoring

  • We regularly review student progress to identify areas for improvement.

  • If you're struggling, we will work with you to develop a tailored improvement plan.

  • Peer mentoring from more experienced students may also be available to provide support and advice.

5. Flexible Training Pace

  • Unlike rigid training programs, our Pay As You Train model allows you to adjust your pace.

  • If needed, you can take additional time between lessons or request more practice before moving on to advanced topics.

6. Mental Wellbeing and Confidence Building

  • Learning to fly can be mentally demanding. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, our instructors can provide coaching techniques to build confidence.

  • We promote a supportive learning environment to ensure students feel encouraged rather than pressured.
