Florida Campus (Main)
Pilot Training in Sanford, Florida
Aerosim Flight Academy’s main campus is located at the Orlando/Sanford International Airport and is situated in the heart of beautiful Central Florida. Our location provides perfect weather for year-round flying as well as the opportunity for students to explore many of the nearby world-famous tourist attractions.
The “Class C” Orlando/Sanford International Airport has an FAA control tower on airport property and four runways with the main runway being 9,600 x 150 ft. Other facilities include Instrument Landing Systems (ILS), GPS Approaches, High Intensity Runway Lighting, a Non-Directional Beacon, a modern terminal with complete ground handling equipment, an AWOS weather reporting system and many other enhancements.
Because Aerosim is the preferred flight vendor for Jacksonville University and Broward College, students also have the option to complete their pilot training studies in Jacksonville or Fort Lauderdale, Florida.
