Airline Pilot training in northern Sweden. Focusing on sustainability and high quality training.

Training Philosophy
At Green Flight Academy, we believe in a truly integrated approach to pilot training, where theory and flight training develop together from day one.
Students begin with basic theory and VFR flying, allowing them to immediately connect classroom knowledge with practical experience. As training progresses, the balance between theory and flying changes with the seasons.

Summer is focused on flying, taking advantage of Skellefteå’s long daylight hours and favourable conditions. Students develop their practical skills through solo flying, cross-country navigation, VFR operations and Advanced UPRT.

During autumn and winter, the focus shifts towards intensive theory, complemented by night flying and experience in real Nordic winter conditions.

This seasonal structure creates a natural progression throughout the programme, combining academic knowledge, practical skills and real-world operational experience. Our goal is to develop confident, adaptable and professional pilots, prepared for a career in commercial aviation.

Our student William 🇸🇪 started in August -25 and is currently flying Phase 4, Instrument training, flying one of our Tecnam p2010tdi 🛫
It’s challenging training that requires a lot of planning and preparation, but it’s also a lot of fun!

A new week, a new group of aspiring pilots! ✈️
On Monday, 22 new students started their journey at GFA.

The first week is all about getting familiar with new routines, systems, classmates and instructors – and, of course, getting the first taste of flying.

There’s a lot to learn, but it’s also the beginning of an exciting journey.

Welcome to GFA, and good luck to all of you! 🛫

Our students start their flight training early in the training, on the Pipistrel Velis Electro, giving them the opportunity to connect the theory they learn with the fundamentals of flying from the very beginning. ✈️⚡️
Since introducing electric aircraft into our training, we have completed more than 10,000 flight movements with electric aircraft — an important milestone that demonstrates our commitment to more sustainable flight training. 🌱

After building their foundation on the electric Velis Electro, our students progress to our Tecnam P2010 TDI and DA42 — as they continue developing their skills and knowledge.

And on Monday, we’re excited to welcome our new class of both international and Swedish students! We can’t wait to get started. 🌍✈️

Summer at GFA is full of milestones. ☀️✈️
Some of our students have completed their very first solo flights, while others have passed their Skills Test. We’ve also been thrilled to hear that several of our graduates have landed their first airline jobs and successfully passed their assessments!

Back at the academy, our students are enjoying the summer, making great progress, and sharing the unique GFA community.

We’re incredibly proud of every one of them—and we can’t wait to welcome our biggest class ever this August! 💚
