Forging Professional Aviators Since 1994
Welcome to 2fly Airborne, a premier global flight training academy with a rich history of excellence. Established in 1994, we have grown to become one of the largest and most respected independent providers of professional flight training in the United States.
Our mission is singular: to transform aspiring cadets into elite, career-ready airline pilots. We specialize in ab initio “from the beginning” training programs designed to take students with zero flight experience to the right-hand seat of a commercial airliner.
Our Training Purpose & Global Recognition
We are one of the few flight organizations in the world approved to deliver comprehensive, dual-license training pathways:
Phase 2: Airline Pathway. Graduates are offered a pathway to work as a Flight Instructor at our academy, allowing them to build the 1,500 flight hours required by airlines while mentoring the next generation of pilots.
Direct Airline Partnerships – We have established formal pathway programs and alliances with leading U.S. regional airlines. These partnerships provide our graduates with a structured pipeline from flight school directly to an airline interview and employment.
A Global Academy
We are experts in training international students and are fully authorized to assist with the M-1 student visa process, making your transition to training in the U.S. as seamless as possible.
FAA (American) Training: We offer a full suite of FAA Part 141 approved courses, from the Private Pilot Certificate all the way through to the Airline Transport Pilot (ATP) certificate.
EASA (European) Training: We provide a complete EASA “frozen” ATPL program, allowing international cadets to train in the ideal weather conditions of the U.S. before converting their license for a career in Europe.
Our structured curriculum is built not just to meet regulatory standards but to exceed the expectations of the world’s leading airlines.
How We Facilitate Your Career in the Sky
We provide a direct path to the flight deck through a combination of world-class facilities, an advanced fleet, and unparalleled airline partnerships.
Ideal Training Environment
Based in Florida, our training centers offer consistent, year-round flying weather, minimizing delays and maximizing your time in the air. This location provides a mix of towered and non-towered airports, exposing you to complex airspace and diverse operational procedures.
Modern Fleet & Simulators
You will train in a modern fleet of aircraft, including industry-standard trainers like the Piper Cherokee and advanced Cessna G1000 multi-engine aircraft. Our air-conditioned fleet is supported by state-of-the-art flight simulators, allowing you to safely master complex procedures and instrument flying before you ever leave the ground.
Career-Focused Programs
Our training is career-oriented from day one. Programs like our FAA First Officer Program are structured in two phases:
Phase 1: Professional Certification. Cadets progress from zero experience to earning their Commercial Pilot and Certified Flight Instructor (CFI) ratings.
