If you are living in spain and want to get a Spanish Ultralight pilot license...It's possible! When i moved to Spain the only words i knew where cerveza, si , no, gracias, etc. So when I arrived the first time and told to Isabelle and Julio of the al aire flight school I wanted to do the course in Spanish, i think they must have thought i was a little bit crazy. I succeded and later i did the instructors course. To be honest i grew up in a pilot family, and i was familiar with airplanes ever since my childhood.
But now my wife who's name is also Isabelle did the same course, without any knowledge of airplanes... and succeded.! So i can guarantee you : it is possible. The theoretic exame is a muliple choice exam and you may do it as many times it takes. We have a database with thousands of questions so you can practice. The practical exam is solo, without radio communication, so you only need to show your flying skills. The minimal flighttime to take the exam is 10 hrs And you need to be solo. Also you must have done a overland flight from 1 hr and landed on 2 different airfields. You have 2 years to get your pilot license.
theroretical exam: 80 multiple choise questions, and you are allowed to make 20 mistakes.
Practical exam: 1 touch and go, 1 low pass, 1 horizontal 8, 1 stall at 4000 rpm, 1 stall at 3000 rpm. and 1 simulation failure of engine with landing . They call it the spiral. At 1000 ft above the beginning of the runway turn motor on and make 2 360 degree turns and land the airplane.
In Spain there is no navigation exam. But it is highly recommended to take a navigacion course after the course. You can do this in your own language.
