Skyborne's vision is to be the most respected and trusted commercial pilot training academy in the industry, delivering airline-ready pilots, and to achieve this we are radically redefining every aspect of airline pilot training, from our unique educational approach to our world-class facilities. We are fully committed to developing a dynamic, engaging and welcoming environment for the next generation of airline pilots to hone their skills.

Based in Gloucestershire in the UK, with flight training partners in the US, we have amazing facilities and the right balance between training and self-motivated learning. Our Progressive Continuous Learning method focuses on ensuring you are always developing your talents and absorbing new skills from our vastly experienced instructors. Start your journey to becoming a professional airline pilot today by choosing to fly with Skyborne.

During the Skyborne APS MCC course, you will undertake advanced swept-wing jet aircraft training using airline Standard Operating Procedures. The regulatory requirement for FSTD training is doubled from 20 hours to 40 hours, when compared to ‘regular’ MCC training.

The course is intended to maximise your employment prospects, by equipping you with the knowledge, skills and attitude required to commence initial type rating training to the standards generally required by a commercial air transport operator.

This three-week course is delivered in state-of-the-art facilities at Skyborne’s training centre at Gloucestershire Airport. The first week is dedicated to learning initial CRM, airline Standard Operating Procedures and fundamental technical training for the Boeing 737 Max aircraft.

Weeks two and three are spent operating a multi-crew environment on the UK’s first Boeing 737 Max FSTD. Some of the most experienced airline instructors in the industry will develop your knowledge and skills during the 40 hours of training, where you will undergo progress tests and a final assessment to establish your suitability to move into type rating training with one of Skyborne’s Partner Airlines.
