What is the average duration for completing the training?

Understanding the optimum time of completion is important. The duration plays a vital role in understanding the efficiency of training imparted by the flying schools. The optimum time period for completion of flying training is 8-12 months. In case an institute is promising you a lesser time frame, you can expect a lower learning value and lesser comprehension. This is common in some academies in the USA who advertise themselves to complete the 200+ hrs of required training in 4-5 months. Similarly, too long a period is also not beneficial. Many flying schools in India often complete the training in 2-3 years and the entire process takes place at a very slow pace with multiple gaps in between the training period. This results in the repetition of lessons and less retention of skills and knowledge.
