Flying School Student

At Smart Flying School, we're not just training pilots. We're building the next generation of aviators for Smart Aviation.

What sets us apart is that we are training pilots for our own airline. We are not simply preparing students for the job market. We are developing future colleagues who will one day fly under the same colors that trained them. Because we are our own end user, we hold ourselves to the highest possible standards from day one. There is no gap between the classroom and the cockpit. The quality of our training becomes the quality of our operations.

You finish the program and you go straight to work as a professional pilot with PT Smart Cakrawala Aviation, earning a living flying our aircraft, in line with the company's needs and your evaluation during training. While many flying schools send their graduates into a highly competitive job market, our students begin their training with a clear career pathway already in place. Train with us, and you'll fly with us.

After completing the program, cadets also get the opportunity to take the Cessna Caravan 208/208B type rating, which is the aircraft you will fly on the line.

We're looking for driven, disciplined, and highly motivated individuals who are ready to commit to this journey, from their very first solo flight to earning their Commercial Pilot License and ultimately taking their place in the cockpit as Smart Aviation pilots.

If you're ready to turn your passion for aviation into a lifelong profession, this is your opportunity to launch your career with confidence. Your journey starts here.
