From April through September (high season), weekend flights are more expensive due to higher landing fees.

What is it?

Starting a flight training is a dream for many. It's also an investment in time and money. To ensure that flying is really something for you, we offer an assessment. It gives you a very good picture of the training, the experience of flying, and your own aptitude.

An assessment consists of six flying lessons. These are also the first six lessons of the PPL course. So they count towards the minimum 45 hours. After these lessons, you'll have answers to the following questions:

  1. Is flying really your dream? Is it worth the investment?
  2. Do you have the aptitude to become a pilot?

In other words: Do you really want this? And how realistic is it that you can take and pass your practical exam within the minimum requirement of 45 hours of flying? You must also take into account that this may be more. That's not unusual at all. On average, people need 6 to 10 extra lessons.

After the lessons

After the six lessons, you evaluate the training with the instructor. It may be that you indeed find it fantastic and have talent as well. It may also be that you, or the instructor, come to the conclusion that becoming a pilot might not be for you. You discuss the continuation of the training. Of course, the hours you've completed count towards obtaining your license.

What you do and don't need

For this assessment, you don't yet need to have had a medical examination and you don't need to have passed a theory exam yet.

Furthermore, the following conditions apply:

  • You are 16 years or older.
  • If you weigh more than 95 kilos (with clothes and shoes on), or are taller than 1.95 m, please call us. With a maximum takeoff weight of 600 kilograms, there are limitations.

Arranging date and time

You can choose your dates and times directly with your order. That can also be done later. We will then send you the information and all possible dates on which you can schedule the lessons. Of course, it might happen that the weather doesn't cooperate and we need to reschedule a lesson. We will always let you know as soon as possible.

Taking lessons on weekends

That's possible, we're open every day. Please note that the airport charges higher landing fees for all flights during the period from early April to late September. Therefore, the assessment is more expensive during this period if you want to take lessons on weekends.

Good to know

If you've already had a trial lesson, you're probably looking for the PPL assessment of 5 lessons.

I always had this little desire to "fly a plane". We don't have this opportunity in India (unless you sign up for the full license training etc). Last week, when I visited Netherlands, my son recommended E-Flight academy. I had booked the class for the day I arrived. However the weather was not good and the school rescheduled it to another day. We drove down from Amsterdam and were greeted by the trainer. Warm welcome, coffee, and explained about the aircraft, the controls and other aspects. I got into the plane and was guided superbly by the trainer - to the extent that I could do most of the actions - taxi, takeoff, some of the maneuvering (stall, 360 turn, go up down, fly along the river etc). Landing was done by the trainer and followed by a debrief. Personally, a superb experience - the school, the staff who managed the appointment, the trainer and the actual flying !

I fly as an instructor on the same type of electric plane back home in Norway, so when I visited the area I just had to do a quick flight with E-Flight. This school is nothing other than impressive. The details put the dot over the i. They even have their own solar panels on the roof. Both the instructor and the rest of the staff are super welcoming and friendly, and skilled. The Velis Electro is an awesome airplane, quiet and comfortable - and E-Flights instructors make this into a great experience. Highly recommended! Thank you for being awesome, and thank you for helping bring electric aviation to the World, E-Flight!

My son (16) flew (himself!) with a seasoned E-Flight Academy instructor and could not stop talking about it on the way back home. Don't think this is just a fun attraction though, they are serious about flying. And take you serious. Even in this introductionary flight he got to learn a lot about the procedures, the plane, the avionics. And of course it is also great fun! It was a wonderful afternoon. And since it was an electric flight and E-flight Academy creates their own solar energy it was silent and clean! Thank you so much, we wish you many successes in pioneering the future of flight!

I did a trial lesson here and it was an amazing experience! The aircraft are brand new, the instructor was great and I could control the aircraft for most of the flight, doing some really interesting manoeuvres. It was also a good opportunity to learn more about electric aircraft.

Last Thursday I went flying at E-flight academy in Teuge to try out a class on the Pipistrel velis electro, I was really looking forward to flying an electric plane as its something new and innovative. The instructor was very friendly and gave a great explanation of the basics. While in the air the instructor still demonstrated some manoeuvres such as a stall and sharp turns. When it was my turn to fly I made some turns and went flying around the clouds, it was great! Overall I would say give it a try, flying electric is also a lot quieter.
