Theoretical flight training

The APP programme starts with the theory training and consists of the following subjects: Airlaw Operational procedures - IFR communications - VFR communications - Principles of flight - General navigation - Radio navigation - Airframe, systems & powerplants - Meteorology - Human performance & limitations - Mass & balance - Instruments - Flight planning & monitoring - Performance

These subjects are covered in four blocks of at least 750 clock hours of classroom instruction. The lessons are given on working days in our building in Lelystad. The content of the lessons is tailored to the EASA requirements for the ATPL.

Practical flying training

Practical flight training starts on a single-engine aircraft (SEP) with basic visual flight training (VFR). After completing the VFR section, you will continue with Instrument Flight (IFR) and Commercial Pilot Licence (CPL). Then the training will continue with the Multi engine route (MEP). Here, students learn to fly an aircraft that has multiple engines. Finally, the training will conclude with a Course in which you learn to work together in the cockpit. This is called the MCC course. The entire practical training consists of the following phases:

• Phase 1 VFR to solo on the TB-9
• Phase2 VFR navigation on the TB-9 & navigation examination
• Phase 3 IFR Basic in the simulator and on the TB-10
• Phase 4 IFR Navigation and Single Engine on the FNPTII simulator and the TB-10 for actual lessons
• Phase 5 CPL Exam on the TB-20
• Phase 6 Multi Engine flying; on the FNPTII simulator and the Cessna T303/Piper PA-44-181 Seminole
• Phase 7 Advanced UPRT
• Phase 8 MCC course on the FNPTII Cessna Citation Jet simulator

Other Phases; Radiotelephony course VFR, incl. exam, Radiotelephony course IFR, incl. exam, Language proficiency endorsement

Airline Pilot Program Modular (APPM)

Toekoen Aviation Academy offers aspiring pilots with ambitions for commercial aviation a new modular flight training with job security in addition to the integral flight training.

Unlike the integral training, the modular variant can be taken at one's own pace. In doing so, students do not have to quit the permanent job that provides a basic income.

Thus, the modular training can be taken alongside the existing job. According to AIS, the modular programme is tailor-made and offers flexibility, among other things. It takes into account students' own pace and personal needs, the training provider said.

ATPL Theory is provided by Toekoen Aviation Academy's regular partner Orbit Groundschool from Arnhem. Upon successful completion of the course, employment at AIS Airlines is guaranteed. A modular course, study when you want.
