Florida, United States – based flight training group Phoenix East Aviation (PEA), has reaffirmed its ongoing partnership with South Korean aviation consultancy SAC Pilot Management, aimed at supporting South Korean student pilots through comprehensive overseas pilot training pathways. The SAC Pilot Management team visited PEA’s campus in October 2025 following PEA and SAC hosting a number of flight training seminars in South Korea in May 2025.

SAC, a trusted aviation education provider since 2008, has been collaborating with PEA since 2022 to facilitate student enrollment in U.S.-based pilot training programs.

• SAC provides South Korean students with tailored guidance on selecting and applying for flight training programs at PEA.
• Students receive assistance with F-1 and M-1 visa applications, with additional support for those aiming to obtain U.S. Permanent Residency for career advancement.
• To ease the transition to flight training, SAC offers Korean-language ground school sessions and training using Cessna 172 Skyhawk G1000 glass cockpit aircraft and FTD simulators.
• South Korean students typically opt for PEA’s Private and Professional I pilot programs, balancing cost efficiency with quality flight training.
• English proficiency is not a prerequisite for SAC applicants, though language preparation is recommended to ensure success in training.
