Opaline Aero provides guidance and coordination, not flight training or immigration legal advice. Admission, visas, financing, licences and employment cannot be guaranteed.

01

EASA training routes

We explain integrated and modular routes and the sequence of theory, flight experience and professional qualifications. The final programme depends on your previous experience and the school’s admission requirements.

02

Language and medical

English ability and the appropriate EASA medical certificate must be considered before committing to training. The level and evidence requested depend on the course and school.

03

School comparison

We compare training organisations using available information on fees, location, fleet, instructor and aircraft availability, training pace and likely additional costs.

04

Application preparation

We help organise the documents requested by the selected flight school and coordinate the application. Requirements vary by school and candidate.

05

Accommodation and mobility

Housing, daily transport and travel are included in the overall budget discussion because they can materially affect the cost and feasibility of studying in France.

06

Recognition and conversion

An EASA licence is not automatically equivalent to a licence issued under another authority. Recognition or conversion must be checked with the relevant aviation authority; Opaline Aero does not guarantee the outcome.

Important boundaries

Visas and applications.

What visa assistance does Opaline Aero provide? +

Opaline Aero can help you organise a checklist and identify official sources or qualified professionals. It does not provide immigration legal advice, submit a visa application as an authority, or guarantee that a visa will be issued.

Does guidance guarantee school admission or an EASA licence? +

No. Flight schools and the relevant authorities make their own decisions. Opaline Aero helps prepare and coordinate your application but cannot guarantee admission, financing, a licence, licence conversion or employment.

Which documents will a flight school request? +

The list varies by school, training route and applicant. Opaline Aero can help organise the school’s stated requirements, including evidence relating to identity, previous training, language or medical status when requested, without replacing the school’s checks.
