Why should Italian citizens seeking pilot certification come to AFT Center for their training? Because training at AFT offers unique advantages to European students.

You already know that AFT offers world-class instruction. Our certificates are recognized by the FAA in the US and JAA in Europe. But did you know that many of our students are drawn from countries far beyond our borders?

Students from Italy, the European Union, and even Australia find that AFT offers cultural diversity and quality training at a tremendous value. Thanks to a favorable exchange rate, studying in the US is a comparative bargain for citizens of the EU and many other countries. In addition, because hotels, shopping, restaurants, and attractions are similarly discounted, it's affordable to combine your pilot training with a fun-filled vacation.

Some of our students would like to stay in the United States for an extended period of time. Because AFT Center is SEVIS certified, we can help our students obtain a hassle-free student visa. We are an approved educational institution and are therefore able to process student visas on behalf of the US embassy. Once your application has been processed and the TSA (Transportation Safety Administration) has approved you for flight training, all you need to do is make an appointment with the US embassy in Italy for the issuance of your visa. Expiry dates can be as long as 3-4 years depending on the course in which you're enrolled.
