Consultations: What to Expect, Bring, and Schedule!

• A “New Student Consultation” is an opportunity for potential students to ask any questions they may have regarding becoming a pilot, professional career paths / options, or any additional questions.
• Consultations at Pilotsmith can be very comprehensive. We answer any and all questions with a realistic, honest approach. Aviation has many angles; Pilotsmith’s goal is to ensure students know exactly what to expect. This allows students to properly plan for success.
• Therefore, WRITE down your questions prior to arrival to ensure all questions are addressed and answered!

Enrollment Process, you would need the following. It is important to note that the consultation does not require you to complete the enrollment process. The idea being, if you decide to complete the enrollment you will have the necessary documents to do so!

1. GMAIL email account – This is used to verify your account when we set up your Flight Schedule Pro (FSP). Also, for lesson plans in the future! (We will explain.)
2. Government issued photo ID – Driver’s license, Military ID, or Passport
3. TSA Citizenship Verification – Passport or Birth Certificate

   2. Purchase 141 Kit (cost depends on program) – Paid with credit or debit card
   3. TSA Badging Fee (Depends on location) – Paid with credit or debit card
   4. Money on account: Cashier’s check, money order, or Personal Check that is made out to Pilotsmith, Inc. Most students put about $5,000 – $15,000 on account, but this amount is up to you.

The first step to the process normally begins with a consultation. There are three different options for a consultation.

1. In-Person Consultation: This is the best option.
2. Video Conference Consultation: If you are unable to make an in-person consultation but have video abilities on your phone or computer, a video conference is the next best thing.
3. Phone Conference Consultation: Not preferred but still an option.

All consultations at Pilotsmith are FREE of charge and take between one and two hours. These are comprehensive consultations that are designed to explain all angles associated with achieving your goals plus answer all of your questions.
