Foreign Students

Air Venture Flight Center Foreign Exchange Program has been created for foreign students who have no flight experience. By using the most cutting edge computer based Flight Instruction along with one-on-one personalized training; our clients receive the most Cost Effective Ab-initio flight education available.

Located in Olive Branch, Mississippi, Air Venture Flight Center’s facilities contain spacious classrooms and individual study areas that create a comfortable learning environment. Our training fleet consists of Cessna 152s and Cessna 172s along with a Piper Arrow and a beach Duchess for multi-engine training. Turbine training is provided in a King Air 90.

To receive flight training in the United States, you will need an M1 VISA. The VISA is quite simple to obtain. First, you must make an appointment with the nearest U.S. embassy in your country. The embassy requires an I20 before issuing a VISA to you. Once you have made an appointment, we will e-mail an I20 application to you. You will fill out the application and return it to us along with a $100 refundable deposit, and we will send you an I20. You will take the I20 to the nearest U.S. embassy to apply for your M1 VISA. Depending on which country you live in, it may take a couple of weeks to get an appointment with the U.S. embassy.  

In addition to the M1 VISA you will need TSA clearance for training in the U.S. Click on the link to the website and follow the instructions. www.flightschoolcandidates.gov.
