Get your Single Engine Piston/Power Class Rating at E-Flight Academy.

Who is this for?

Do you have a LAPL or higher? Or are you a commercial pilot but do not have an SEP rating? Then take our Single Engine Piston / Power training. You can do this training in our Pipistrel Explorer piston engine, or the fully electric Pipistrel Velis. If you are interested in the Bristell B23, contact us for a custom quote.

Practical

  • At least three flying lessons of 1 hour in the Pipistrel Explorer, or four flying lessons of 45 minutes in the Pipistrel Velis
  • For both types (fuel/electric) an exam is required if you want to fly both types
  • At least 10 landings (10 landings are included in the price with us; if more landings are necessary, this will be based on post-calculation)
  • 1 hour of aircraft rental (1 flight Explorer or possibly 2 flights Velis) for the exam flight (if more time turns out to be needed, this will be based on post-calculation)

Theory

During the practical training, some theory will also be given. Allow for 8 hours of theory with the instructor and 8 hours of home study. During the exam, theoretical knowledge is assessed orally by the examiner.

Good to know

  • A single engine class rating can be obtained on an electric model or a fuel model. If you want to be able to fly both variants, we recommend first obtaining an SEP class rating on the fuel model and then doing the E-conversion to our electric model. No exam is required for the E-conversion. If you choose to obtain the SEP class rating on an electric aircraft, you may not simply fly a fuel model afterward, and vice versa.
  • For an SEP class rating, you must already hold a valid LAPL or PPL. A higher license such as CPL or ATPL is of course also acceptable.
  • For LAPL holders, in addition to the 'dual' SEP practical training, 10 solo takeoffs and landings must also be completed under the supervision of the instructor. For this, a flight of one and a half hours is scheduled (Virus) or two flights of 45 minutes (Velis). Let us know if this applies to you.
  • You must have a medical certificate of at least class 2.
  • The examiner and exam fees are not included in the price (allow for 250 euros for an examiner). Landing fees during the exam are also not included. These will be charged after the exam.
  • The above practical program is the minimum number of hours. Depending on the person, more training may be required.
  • If after the training you are allowed to fly both piston and electric, you must keep both ratings valid. Unfortunately, no 'cross-crediting' applies in the legislation.
  • If you have ever held an SEP but let it expire and still want to make it valid again, please contact us for more information. This also applies if you need to make a training flight for 'revalidation'. Often a customized syllabus is possible.
  • You are responsible for applying for the license amendment with KIWA yourself. We will help you get started.

Arrange date and time

You can reserve the slots directly by selecting "choose date and time" on this page. If you do not know the date/time yet, that is no problem; we will send you the information so you can book later.

Take lessons in the weekend

That is possible, we are open every day. Please note that the airport charges higher landing fees for all flights from early April to the end of September. Therefore, this training is more expensive during this period if you want to take lessons in the weekend.

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.
