I did a demo flight with Duke and had an incredible experience. I’ve been interested in getting into aviation and getting my private pilots license and Duke educated me and gave me a great experience.

I visited Epic Flight Academy in Provo UT today and had an outstanding experience! Duke was knowledgeable, professional, and took the time to answer all my questions about training options, costs, and the best path forward for my goals. I could not rate my experience any higher !

Had a really solid discovery flight. Great experience start to finish!! The instructor (Duke) is a great pilot and clearly knew what he was doing, which made it easy to trust the process and just enjoy it. 🙌 Definitely recommend it to anyone, ESPECIALLY if you’re thinking about becoming a pilot.

My friend and I did the discovery flight with Duke, it was awesome! He explained everything clearly and showed us how the systems worked and the full process of a pre-check and flight goes. The flight was really fun and calming. My friend was even able to have the controls for a short time, even start the gradual descent, when we started getting ready. Honestly it’s so fun that the hour trip felt like 5-10 minutes. T…

Planning Your Training Here

Planning training at a local school like Epic Flight Academy trades the academy's speed for flexibility and often meaningfully lower total cost. The pay-as-you-fly model keeps your money in your control, and training two to three lessons weekly around work is the proven rhythm, enough frequency to retain skills without the academy's all-in schedule. The variable to manage is momentum: local-school students who succeed book standing lesson slots, fly year-round, and treat ground study as homework rather than something that happens at the airport. Ask about aircraft scheduling depth, instructor availability on your target days, and examiner wait times in Provo, the three friction points that stretch part-time timelines.

What Flying in Utah Teaches You

Utah is mountain flying's front door: high field elevations, real density altitude arithmetic, and terrain that makes weather-and-route planning a first-order skill. Students train under Salt Lake's Class B with the Wasatch Range as a constant reference, and graduate comfortable in the kind of terrain that intimidates flatland pilots.

How to Evaluate Epic Flight Academy on Your Tour

Every school on this directory gets the same advice from us, because the fundamentals don't move. Walk the ramp and count how many aircraft are down for maintenance. Ask how many lessons a week they can actually schedule you, and how far out the booking calendar runs. Ask for first-attempt checkride pass rates and how long students wait for an examiner. And keep your money in your control: pay as you fly, or in small blocks with clear refund terms.

Then weigh the location itself. Training in Provo means building your early hours in Utah weather and airspace, and both become part of your airmanship. Our school-selection guide covers the full vetting checklist, and the financing page maps scholarships and loans that apply at schools like this one.

Common Questions About Training at Epic Flight Academy

How long would my training take here?

Part-time students flying two to three lessons weekly typically earn a private certificate in six to twelve months and a commercial certificate in two to three years, with pace set by your calendar and the weather. Consistency decides everything: standing lesson slots beat sporadic bursts by months.

What will it cost, and can I get help paying?

Get Epic Flight Academy's current rates directly; published numbers age fast in this industry. Nationally, plan on $80,000 to $120,000 from zero time to commercial certificates before instructing pay starts offsetting costs. Our financing guide maps the loans, scholarships, and airline cadet programs that apply here, and several scholarship cycles go undersubscribed every single year.

How should I arrange a visit?

Call ahead and ask for a tour on a normal training day, not a quiet one. Use the directions button above to plan the drive to Provo, arrive early enough to watch ramp operations, and bring the vetting checklist from this page. A school proud of its operation will show you everything; hesitation is itself an answer.
