Whether you are a first timer or have been a student pilot for a while now, we believe that you can never have too much help. Maybe you are accustomed to a lot of these tips, but there may be some tips for your flight training that could be helpful in the long run. Keep your eyes open and read along!

Student Pilot Flight Training Tip #1:
It never hurts to bring your checklist home to study the list before hand and understand what is expected of you when you are flying. By doing this, you will also be able to formulate a step-by-step plan to prepare your flight according to the checklist.

Student Pilot Flight Training Tip #2:
Familiarise yourself with your cockpit. By doing this, you will be prepared when an emergency occurs as you will know where everything is, preventing you from panicking due to not being able to find the button you’re looking for.

Student Pilot Flight Training Tip #3:
Find a way to get acquainted with other pilots, preferably one that has had plenty of experience before as this would boost your pilot knowledge by learning from them. You can also learn more by sharing your knowledge with other student pilots, who knows, maybe you missed something in your flight training.

Student Pilot Flight Training Tip #4:
Similar to any type of schools, you should study in advance. This would help you understand and absorb the material given during training better and faster, making your flight trainings more efficient.

Student Pilot Flight Training Tip #5:
Advance further by learning after your mistakes. It would be smart to write down every mistakes you have done when flying with your senior instructor during your flight training. This would allow you to look back at what you have done and improve yourselves and your technique.

Student Pilot Flight Training Tip #6:
Improve your communication skills by listening to Air Traffic Controller (ATC) communications in a certain frequency. You will find that there would be less misunderstandings occurring when you are familiar with what the ATC is saying. It may also be helpful to be friends with an ATC to know what goes on in the tower and get some insight to improve your flight training as a student pilot.

Student Pilot Flight Training Tip #7:
Don’t fret when you can’t find information in the referred books. Use the internet and other sources to find what you’re searching for. It is not wise to stick to one book as you need to broaden your mind to other informations regarding the same topic.

Student Pilot Flight Training Tip #8:
Discuss and ask scenario based questions with other student pilots that are undergoing flight training as well to become more confident in your upcoming check ride. They can also become your emotional support team!

Student Pilot Flight Training Tip #9:
Thoroughly check your aircraft prior to flying and make sure everything is checked in the checklist to prevent any accidents or any unwanted scenarios from occurring during your flight training. Especially during Solo flight trainings as you will be on your own and must fend for yourself.

Student Pilot Flight Training Tip #10:
Nobody’s memory is perfect, especially when you’re thinking about flying all the time! Better update your log book after every flight before you forget! This also saves you from panicking before your check ride as you will need to pass it on to your Designated Pilot Examiner (DPE). If you missed any flight hours, this would be problematic when your flight hours are just slightly off the target and you aren’t able to get your licenses.

Student Pilot Flight Training Tip #11:
Do not be scared of making mistakes. Make mistakes during your training! This may be rather controversial, however, it is always better to make mistakes during your training rather than later on in your career as now, you have instructors to help you out and guide you. You will be able to recover faster and better from your mistakes. Of course, this only applies for minor mistakes.

We hope that with all of these tips, you will be able to become a more efficient and complete your program successfully.
