About Us:

AWA is an aeronautical training school that has been in operation since 2008. Currently, Airplane Piloting and Flight Operations courses are being carried out. These courses are approved by the National Civil Aviation Authority (ANAC), corresponding to the technical requirements for that purpose, as stated in the Certificates of Approval PT.ATO.005 and P / OOV / 03/03, issued by ANAC.

AWA works with its own capital, without loans or grants, in facilities suitable for training, with 9 classrooms, 2 simulators (flight and communications) and an Amphitheater with a capacity of 160 seats only at Headquarters.

It has an organic fleet of about 20 aircraft that operate from the Cascais and Évora aerodromes, where the facilities correspond to the highest operational requirements.

We have a reputable group of employees (see “Our Team“), totally focused on your training, to which are joined about 30 Flight Instructors and 42 Teachers of theoretical subjects.

The courses are suitable due to the theoretical and practical subjects and match the job market requirements, always according to the training program approved by ANAC and considering the National and International legislation, highlighting the ones emanated by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), and the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA).

AWA, in spite of the difficulties created by the external environment of pilot demand at an unprecedented level, which had an impact on the training of pilots in Portugal (as some ATO instructor pilots were integrated into Airlines), continues to guarantee quality training of its students within the EASA time frame. At AWA we continue to assume that the pilot student must have a set of characteristics that allow him to enter the profession, not just being the prerequisites for enrolling in the course.
