Edly is proud to help OC Flight Lessons provide affordable, income-based repayment (IBR) loans to its students.

Based on typical pilot earnings, graduates pay far less early in their career. As income grows, payments adjust accordingly.

Students apply and get a decision in minutes with a soft credit inquiry. No impact to credit score, Edly credit decisions are good for one year.
• Up to $130,000 per pilot
• Private pilot’s license for as little as $150-300 a month*
• Instrument rating for as little as $175 a month*
• Multi rating for as little as $75 a month*
Our flight training loan is not a typical student loan. It is a line of credit that can be used for any flight training school or program. You can use the funds to pay the school directly as you make your way from private pilot to instrument pilot and beyond.
*Payments are based on the following loan amounts; $6,000-12,000 PPL, $7,000 instrument rating and $3,000 multi rating. Flight training costs vary by location, aircraft and other factors. These are minimum required monthly payments based on the loan amounts noted. $25 for every $1,000 borrowed.
Students first have to become members of AOPA in order to apply for the loan. Download the funding Application Form here.

“If you’re interested in becoming a pilot, this is the school to attend. I began my training in May 2015 with incredible results! I completed my PPL at 51 hours! Which is… unheard of, in the L.A. basin area. Including my instrument rating, right at FAA minimums as well. I’m currently finishing my commercial with the same results! Aircraft rates are one of the lowest compared to nearby schools. Instructors are highly experienced with airline backgrounds. OC Flight Lessons, thank you for the support and great experience… You rock!”

“I currently take flight lessons from the owner, Omar; I have nothing but good to say about him and those that work for him. A lot of schools seem to just hire people by the dozens that just got there certificate for flight instructing(cfi/cfii) who just want to get hours and leave, and you hear about students being halfway through with their private pilot licensing and their instructor that they built a relationship with just leaves without notice. But Omar and Faris as well are great at what they do, and are there for you through your whole process, as well as always good with answering any questions you have. I highly recommend OC Flight Lessons!”

“OC Flight Lessons is a great school to get your ratings done. They have experienced knowledgeable instructors and well maintained airplanes. I met the owner Omar(former airline pilot) and he was very informative and cares a lot about the students at the school. He’s hands on and very involved with your training even if he is not your instructor. I visited other schools at John Wayne and felt that OC Flight Lessons was the best value overall. Omar spent 1 hour out of his busy day explaining how things worked and answered every question I had thoroughly and added insight about things I didn’t even think of. If you want to fly every day(like I did), they can accommodate you as long as you plan ahead. I’d recommend starting with a demo flight and going from there.”

“First time in the AIR in a Piper Sport. Instructor Bre Orr was fantastic as to clarity and understanding as to instructions. Intro flights are brief but provide an excellent expectation as to what comes next. On that note, I’m on board to continue my training to my Private Pilots License. I have no idea what this will lead to but I do know this will and can open doors. Whether I use it for Business to travel the coastal region on behalf of Ocean Marine Surveyors, Inc or just pleasure or maybe even further in the industry of flying but all I can say is and recommend is one step at a time and I do recommend OC Flight School to check it out!”

“I have been taking lessons here for the last two months and really enjoy everything. Omar is awesome, always helpful at getting lessons set up and motivating you to deal with some of the pitfalls of flying. Dylan and Darryl are awesome CFI’s and have really helped me improve as a student pilot and learn the fundamentals. Great flight school.”

“I came in here after researching different schools for private pilot and accidentally stumbled across this one. After visiting a few schools, I decided to go with this one and I’m very glad I did. The owner is very honest, helpful and knowledgeable. I would definitely recommend this if you are interested in private pilot or anything beyond that.”
