Professional Aviation Academy is excited to announce that the first group of 15 students from Norway’s Pilot Flight Academy has arrived in Italy to complete a crucial part of their ATPL (Airline Transport Pilot License) course.

In September Pilot Flight Academy and Professional Aviation Academy announced the new partnership starting in October 2024. Through this collaboration, Pilot Flight Academy students have the opportunity to conduct their Visual Flight Rules (VFR) flight training at Professional Aviation Academy’s state-of-the-art facilities in Italy.

This partnership offers students a unique opportunity to fly in diverse airspace and weather conditions, enhancing their training and better preparing them for international aviation careers. The Italian landscape, combined with Professional Aviation’s comprehensive training programs, provides the perfect environment for VFR training, adding significant value to the existing curriculum.

“We are excited to partner with Professional Aviation Academy and offer our students access to an excellent training facility in Bologna,” said Mikael Eriksson, CEO of Pilot Flight Academy. “Italy’s varied flight conditions will provide an invaluable training experience, helping our students develop the skills needed to navigate the complexities of flying in different regions across the globe.”

“We are proud to add this international partnership to our portfolio, further strengthening Professional Aviation’s global reach,” said Vito Preti, CEO of Professional Aviation Academy. “Our training offering includes both integrated and modular programs for fixed and rotary wings. We aim to be an international reference for training quality and timely delivery of pilots. This collaboration will also allow us to expand our fleet by adding 5 new aircraft, bringing our total to 26.”
