FlyBright Pilot Academy

FlyBright Pilot Academy provides accelerated airplane training at Punta Gorda Airport in Southwest Florida.

Professional and individual-course options include Sport Pilot, Private Pilot, Instrument Rating, Commercial single- and multi-engine, CFI, CFII and Multi-Engine Instructor. Full-time programs combine these qualifications in several packages, while pay-as-you-go and individual accelerated courses accommodate students pursuing selected certificates or ratings. The career and airline pathways do not constitute an ATP certificate course.

The fleet includes Evektor Harmony light-sport airplanes, Piper Pilot 100i trainers, a Piper Seminole for multi-engine work and a Redbird advanced aviation training device. FlyBright also offers an Allegiant pilot pathway, online degree options through Purdue Global, financing resources and housing for eligible full-time students.
