Foundation Course
AFTER THE COMPLETION OF THIS COURSE, YOU CAN COMMENCE FULL FLIGHT TRAINING AT ONE OF OUR PILOT TRAINING ACADEMIES IN LEBANON, EUROPE, OR AUSTRALIA
The information you want. The knowledge you need.
Airways Aviation – ESMA offers the mandatory foundation course at all its locations. The foundation course is the first step on your journey to becoming a fully licensed pilot. After its competition, you will have the ability to commence full flight training at one of our pilot training academies in Germany or France.
We recognize that big dreams often start early. Becoming a pilot is the ultimate dream for many and is often considered as a potential career from a young age, long before training can actually start. Many would-be pilots are keen to find out more about what life is like as an airline pilot, military pilot, or helicopter pilot, how the industry works, what to study, and if help is available. The most frequently asked questions we receive from aspiring pilots are usually about how and where to gain the qualifications required by employers, what knowledge and skills are required, and simply, ‘how do I become a pilot?’
These future aviators are not yet ready to begin training since they lack the proper education, knowledge, qualifications, and skills needed, but they want to learn, research, and prepare for a flying career now. The information gathering process can be overwhelming when you’re just beginning, but we have made this process much simpler with the assistance of our experts.
