This dream is more realistic and achievable than you think. The path to a pilot\u2019s license involves a few key questions, and we\u2019ll help you find the answers. See if you\u2019re a good fit, choose your path, and take the first step.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 1: Can I become a pilot? Prerequisites<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The first question you\u2019re probably asking yourself is: \u201cAm I cut out for this?\u201d The answer is: probably yes! Modern aviation is open to enthusiasts, and the prerequisites are clearly defined and not nearly as restrictive as you might think.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There are three key elements to getting started with the training:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Age:<\/strong> You can start flight training as early as age 16 (with the consent of your legal guardians). You can receive your PPL(A) pilot license after turning 17.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Health:<\/strong> The most important requirement is an aviation medical examination. At least a Class 2 certificate is required for a private pilot license. Vision problems corrected with glasses or contact lenses are generally not a barrier.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Motivation:<\/strong> Training takes time and dedication. We\u2019ll teach you everything else\u2014all the necessary knowledge and practical skills.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\r\n<section  class=\"ptasi-inline-cta ptasi-inline-cta--border\">\r\n\t<div class=\"ptasi-inline-cta__container\">\r\n\t\t<div class=\"ptasi-inline-cta__content ptasi-inline-cta__content--center\">\r\n\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"ptasi-inline-cta__heading\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\tDo you have more questions about the tests, eligibility, or age requirements?\t\t\t\t<\/h2>\r\n\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"ptasi-inline-cta__subheading\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\tSee details:\t\t\t\t<\/p>\r\n\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ptasi-inline-cta__button\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/zostac-pilotem\/wymagania\/\" class=\"site-btn site-btn--primary\" aria-label=\"Can I become a pilot?\">\n            <span class=\"site-btn__label\">Can I become a pilot?<\/span>\n        <\/a>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\r\n\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t<\/div>\r\n<\/section>\r\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 2: Choose your path \u2013 PPL(A) or LAPL(A)?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Your path in aviation depends on your goals. Before you begin training, you need to decide which type of license best suits your ambitions and plans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>PPL(A) License (Private Pilot License):<\/strong> This is the most popular and versatile option. It is an essential first step if you are considering a career in aviation (it serves as the foundation for the ATPL). It allows you to fly anywhere in the world and is recognized internationally. It requires a minimum of 45 flight hours.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>LAPL(A) License (Light Aircraft Pilot License):<\/strong> This is the perfect option if you want to fly as a hobby, for your own enjoyment, mainly within Europe. It requires fewer flight hours (a minimum of 30), which means lower costs and a faster path to certification.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<section class=\"ptasi-pricing-section ptasi-section ptasi-layout--wide alignfull wp-block-akademiapilotow-pricing-cards\" id=\"pricing-section\">\n    <div class=\"ptasi-container\">\n                    <div class=\"ptasi-section-heading ptasi-section-heading--center\">\n                                    <h2 class=\"ptasi-section-heading__title\">Choose your path to certification<\/h2>\n                \n                            <\/div>\n        \n        <div class=\"ptasi-pricing-grid\">\n                            <a\n                    href=\"\/en\/zostac-pilotem\/ppla\/\"\n                    class=\"ptasi-pricing-card\"\n                >\n                                            <figure class=\"ptasi-pricing-card__image\">\n                            <img decoding=\"async\"\n                                src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/young-pilot-is-preparing-for-take-off-with-private-2025-03-16-03-20-05-utc.jpg\"\n                                alt=\"PPL(A)\"\n                                loading=\"eager\"\n                                class=\"ptasi-pricing-card__img\"\n                            \/>\n                                                            <span class=\"ptasi-pricing-card__label\">Most Popular<\/span>\n                                                    <\/figure>\n                    \n                    <p class=\"ptasi-pricing-card__plan\">PPL(A)<\/p>\n                    <h3 class=\"ptasi-pricing-card__price\">42,750 PLN (gross)<\/h3>\n                    <p class=\"ptasi-pricing-card__description\">A private pilot license is the first step toward a career as an airline pilot.<\/p>\n\n                                            <ul class=\"is-style-checkmark\">\n                                                            <li>Getting started \u2013 call us to schedule an appointment<\/li>\n                                                            <li>At least 45 hours of practical training<\/li>\n                                                            <li>EASA-compliant program<\/li>\n                                                    <\/ul>\n                    \n                    <div class=\"ptasi-pricing-card__actions\">\n                                                    <span class=\"site-btn site-btn--primary site-btn--full\" role=\"button\">\n                                <span class=\"site-btn__label\">MORE<\/span>\n                            <\/span>\n                                            <\/div>\n                <\/a>\n                            <a\n                    href=\"\/en\/zostac-pilotem\/lapla\/\"\n                    class=\"ptasi-pricing-card\"\n                >\n                                            <figure class=\"ptasi-pricing-card__image\">\n                            <img decoding=\"async\"\n                                src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/outdoor-shot-of-young-man-in-small-plane-cockpit-2024-09-16-14-40-52-utc.jpg\"\n                                alt=\"LAPL(A)\"\n                                loading=\"eager\"\n                                class=\"ptasi-pricing-card__img\"\n                            \/>\n                                                    <\/figure>\n                    \n                    <p class=\"ptasi-pricing-card__plan\">LAPL(A)<\/p>\n                    <h3 class=\"ptasi-pricing-card__price\">32,500 PLN (gross)<\/h3>\n                    <p class=\"ptasi-pricing-card__description\">License for recreational pilots.
