Pilot training programs and courses
Saudi Arabian Professional Pilot Training
The L3Harris Flight Academy Saudi Arabian Pilot Training programs were designed for those in Saudi Arabia who wish to become commercial pilots. L3Harris has trained Saudi Arabian cadets for over 6 years.
Saudi Arabian Professional Pilot Training with L3Harris
L3Harris offers two programs designed to meet the needs of those seeking future employment in Saudi Arabia, the Commercial Pilot Track and the Saudi Arabian Pilot Track. Both programs were created to provide cadets with the resources and training necessary to become successful commercial pilots.
- The Commercial Pilot Track provides the minimum ratings and certificates required to become a commercially licensed multi-engine pilot. A Commercial Pilot License allows you to be paid to fly airplanes
- The Saudi Arabian Pilot Track provides all of the above, plus an additional 103.3 hours of flight time! This additional time will help to develop your skills in the cockpit, providing you with the experience sought after by many Saudi Arabian Airlines. This program was designed to match the training outline and requirements for Saudia Airlines*
*Enrolling in this program does not guarantee a job placement with Saudia Airlines.
Our Nationally Accredited programs provide cadets with the opportunity to earn FAA (Federal Aviation Administration) certificates and ratings, which can be easily converted to meet GACA (General Authority of Civil Aviation) requirements.
The process of converting licenses typically comes with additional fees. For more information, and to learn about the transfer process, visit the GACA website at www.gaca.gov.sa.
