Transition to ICON courses for Seaplane and Land pilots
This course is designed for those who want to add seaplane capabilities to their flying repertoire, introducing you to the unique dynamics of amphibious flight.
Light Sport Aircraft (LSA) Seaplane Endorsement for LAND pilots, also known as the TX-L Program, is specifically designed for certified land pilots (who have PPL Land or SPL Land) looking to transition into the exciting world of seaplane flying.
Our specialized training programs offer the perfect bridge to mastering this unique aircraft. Designed to cater to both land and sea pilots, these programs equip you with the skills and knowledge needed to confidently handle the ICON A5’s innovative features and versatile performance.
Our transition program includes 9 hours of flight training and 5 hours of ground instruction, designed to prepare you thoroughly for flying Light Sport Aircraft (LSA) in the Sea category. Upon successful completion, you’ll receive an endorsement in your pilot logbook from a certified instructor. This endorsement qualifies you to operate not only the ICON A5 but also a range of other amphibious aircraft in the LSA Sea category, such as the Seamax, Searey, and more.
ICON Transition course for Seaplane Pilots: Build on your existing experience with water operations while learning the specific amphibious capabilities of the ICON A5.
Sport Pilot License (“land” or “sea” or both)
We offer the ICON A5 for training and issuing Light Sport Aircraft (LSA) licenses. The training requirements for an LSA license are about half those of a PPL, with only 20 flight hours required as per 14 CFR Part 61, Subpart J.
We can use the ICON A5 for LSA (land) training without including water landings or water operations.
Begin your aviation journey with a Sport Pilot License, tailored specifically for the ICON A5. Learn to master both land and water operations with ease.
This is a separate, independent license, and obtaining it is accompanied by an EXAM, meaning you will have to pass an actual checkride.
