FAQs

Q: How much is Sweet Aviation Instrument Ground School?
A: Our cost is $499. This includes all 12 weeks of instruction and a Gleim Instrument Ground School Kit.

Q: Is Instrument Ground School all I need to receive an instrument rating?
A: No, much like a driver’s license, there is ground knowledge and a practical portion of flight training.
