This is a complete ground school program, suitable for all student pilots (airplane, single-engine, land). We are proud to tell you that the Gold Seal Online Ground School has become the most popular online flight training program on Earth. After you view a couple of our free lessons, we're sure you'll see why.

Registration - You can participate in this online ground school as either a registered student or enrolled student. Registration is free and gives you immediate access to a large part of the Private Pilot Course. Enrolled students pay a small "tuition" in order to take the entire course and be eligible for a Course Completion Certificate and FAA Written Test Endorsement. Whichever option you choose, you're going to like it here. Click here for details.

Classes - These are multimedia lessons in the most important piloting topics. Although student pilots will use these to learn the material covered in exams, all pilots will find them to be important reviews of the essentials. In fact, over 40% of our students are already licensed pilots. The lessons are multimedia intensive - you will need a fast computer and high speed connection to view them. 

Resources - There is a large selection of knowledge resources available here. It's not all just in the lessons. Take advantage of the our online radio broadcast to interact with other pilots and instructors. Panels of CFIs will be standing by to take your questions live.

Library - The Library contains an assortment of FAA documents in .pdf format. If you need it, you'll probably find it there. Additionally, there is a selection of "white papers" covering a spectrum of aviation topics. Finally, you'll find some really interesting articles in the Library as well as a directory of flight instructors listed by city and state.

Podcasts - In this section you will find a list of audio presentations. They include everything from discussions of confusing subjects to interviews with key aviation professionals. You may listen to streaming audio on your computer if you have a high speed connection. Otherwise, you may download and play the audio on your computer or portable .mp3 player.
