Frequently asked questions about Flight training and pilot license
No, there is no legal minimum age to start flight lessons. However, you must be at least 16 years old to fly solo and 17 by the time you conduct your checkride. Having said this, it is more cost efficient to start training between the ages of 16 and 17 at the earliest.
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) dictates that the minimum required flight experience is 40 hours.
