Every license, every hour requirement, and exactly how MFT's programs at KFXE help you complete them faster than anywhere else.
South Florida's 300+ VFR days per year mean you fly almost every single day. While students at northern schools lose 30–50% of training days to weather, MFT students fly consistently, completing hour requirements dramatically faster.
Our 12-hour daily schedule, in-house maintenance team, and large fleet mean zero waiting for aircraft. This is why MFT students reach milestones in weeks, not months.
