How to become a pilot in the UK
How to apply
There are several approaches to pilot training; each training approach is designed to equip you with the qualification needed to apply for a role as a First Officer with the ultimate goal of becoming a Captain.
1
Attend an Open Day
Why not visit one our Open Days or upcoming events? You’ll have the opportunity to learn about the campus, find out more information about the pilot programmes we offer, chat with current cadets as well as Instructors and career advisers.
Ultimately, our Open Days and events will help you get a real feel for life at Acron Aviation Academy during your pilot training.
2
Consider your funding
Pilot training is a large investment which requires a lot of thought and preparation.
We are not able to offer any pilot training financial advice however, we would suggest that potential candidates speak with their families and a variety of banks, lenders and independent financial advisers who will be best placed to discuss the finance and funding solutions available for pilot training.
Ensure you have the means of funding your pilot training prior to applying.
