Epic Flight Academy

Established in 1999, Epic Flight Academy opened its doors as Epic Aviation. Initially, Epic offered both FAA pilot training and FBO services. However, in 2002, CEO Danny Perna shifted the focus solely to flight training. Epic maintains consistent growth through an innovative approach to the aviation market. For example, in 2005, Epic was one of the first flight schools to offer standardized glass-cockpit aircraft. As a result, students can train instrumentation similar to the technology used by the airlines. Therefore, Epic takes students from zero experience to airline pilot in as few as two years.

In order to expand its worldwide network of safe, talented pilots, Epic’s flight school developed an expedited Professional Pilot Pathway. As a result, this minimized both course cost and time for aspiring airline pilots. As a result, Epic received Cessna’s “Flight Training Excellence” award. Furthermore, Cessna recognized Epic as an authorized Cessna Service Center for high quality maintenance. Epic has been the top choice for students from 80+ countries. They have trained to fly within every Civil Aviation Authority. Epic partners with a number of airlines to ensure our students make connections to achieve their career goals. For example, thousands of Epic aviators are serving 300+ airlines worldwide. Epic is frequently in the news for its innovative approach to flight training. Additionally, we maintain a growing fleet of new generation aircraft. We are proud of our achievements!
