Why would someone from Australia go all the way to America for pilot training? Because getting your flight training at ATF Center can get you the best possible training for less. You'll also get a hassle-free student visa, train with other international students, and get certification that's accepted in both the US and Europe.

Because the dollar is weak against many currencies, flight training courses are significantly more affordable in the US than in Europe and many other countries. Australian dollars will also go further here on hotels, restaurants, and attractions so you can get your pilot's training without sacrificing your vacation.

At AFT Center, we also make it easy for you to get your student visa. AFT Center is SEVIS certified! SEVIS certification allows an approved educational institution to process student visas on behalf of the US embassy. Once the application has been processed and the TSA (Transportation Safety Administration) has approved the individual for flight training, the applicant then makes an appointment with the US embassy in Australia for the issuance of that visa. Expiry dates can be as long as 3-4 years depending on the course they have enrolled in!

Many international students choose AFT Center because our certifications are deemed valid by the FAA in the US and JAA in Europe. Because we offer a culturally diverse student body and world-class instructors, AFT Center offers the best pilot training possible and a truly rewarding experience.
