Life as a student pilot is both rewarding and demanding. In the span of 20-24 months, you will go through a very intense study program, which makes it important for you to be able to relax in between flying and theory. We make arrangements for our students to have enough study time outside the classroom, and also during the flight program.

Student society
Student cohesion during the study period is one of the most important prerequisites for a good and successful study period. That is why OSMAA has a separate student society which holds regular gatherings. This will include, amongst other things, cinema nights, quizzes, boat trips and more. We encourage all pilot students with us to join the student community.
On the first day at OSM Aviation Academy, you will meet at Gardermoen (Oslo Airport), where you will be welcomed by OSM employees. They will give a presentation about the program and explain what the first couple of days will look like.
After the presentation, you will travel together with OSM to the USA, where you will be shown your accommodations. Next, you will be given a tour of the airport and the surrounding area. In addition, there will be several group activities to help everyone get to know each other, creating a safe, supportive, and positive learning environment.
Our training location in the USA is located in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Fort Lauderdale is a coastal city on the Atlantic Ocean often known for its beaches and boating canals. Besides its miles of blue waterways and sandy beaches, the city also offers a diverse variety of entertainment and cultural interest you can enjoy while taking a break from the studies.
