There is a misconception in the world today that in order to become a pilot, you have to be rich, you have to be smart, and you have to have to own an airplane. We're here to tell you that none of that is true. Becoming a pilot is a richly rewarding experience, you join a tight-knit community of people from all corners of the world, with different backgrounds and different professions. Whether you are a college student, an office worker, in the military, or a school teacher, Lytle Aviation has opportunities to make the dream of flight a reality. Each airplane has a story to tell. From the moment they were released from the factory and launched in the air by their first owner, they traced their tale in the sky. One of our planes made its home in chilly Alaska, where it was flown South to Alabama by a couple every summer to see their family. The unique set of avionics options, autopilot choice, and interior comfort was specifically designed for longer cross-country flights. Becoming a pilot is a big step, its natural to have questions about the process, the training, what it costs, how long it takes, what you can do with a pilots license, the list goes on. We have assembled a list of Frequently Asked Questions for you to help get the answers you need. If your question is not on the list, please contact us and our knowledgeable instructors would be more than happy to help.
