The Hamilton Pilot Training System is made for pilots learning to fly Light-Sport Aircraft.
Basics for learning to fly as a sport pilot and a private pilot are the same expept a few additional tasks required for the private pilot.
For a complete descroption of the differences between sport and private pilots go to the private pilot section.
Listed here is how the Hamilton Pilot Training System (HPTS) is used for sport to private pilot training or used for primary private pilot training.
Sport pilot student who decides to go directly to the private pilot license and private pilots using the HPTS to train directly for private pilot.
This sport/private pilot transition guide can be used to train from the ground up directly for private pilot using the Hamilton Pilot Training System (HPTS) “Sport Pilot Training Syllabus”. The airspace endorsement (HPTS Sport Pilot Training Syllabus – module 16) lesson and additional private pilot lesson plans listed in this guide are the additional training required:
- Private pilot “Instrument training lesson plan module PP1” is integrated into “Stage 2 Flight Maneuvers and Aeronautical Knowledge to Solo”
- Private Pilot “Radio navigation lesson plan module PP2” is integrated into “Stage 3 Student pilot – Regulations – Cross Country”.
- Private Pilot “Night Flight lesson plan module PP3 also added to “Stage 3 Student pilot – Regulations – Cross Country”.
- Airspace endorsement is also integrated into the “Stage 3 Student pilot – Regulations – Cross Country”.
- Private pilot knowledge Module PP4 and practical tests private module PP5 simply replace the sport pilot “Stage 4 Test Preparation”.
Integrating these extra private pilot tasks into the student workbook provides a solid basis for private pilot transition or direct private pilot training.
