Ecole Superieure D’Aviation

Ecole Superieure d'Aviation (ESA) is a flight school for airline pilots. The site lists its headquarters in Paris. Training takes place abroad at Heraklion Airport, and classes and radio work are in English.

The company was founded in 2019. The site says it trains airline pilots through two programs: a vocational airline pilot course, and a dual degree that combines university study with flight training.

The airline pilot program takes 18 months full time. It is open to any high school graduate with no previous experience and leads to a European licence. The site says the program is taught 100 percent in English.

The CPL IR ME program takes five months and includes 96 flight hours. Exam fees, accommodation and flights are listed as included. The site says each class is capped at about 12 students so the flying schedule can be kept.

The site says 90 percent of graduates are placed, with an average time of six months. It also says 96 percent of students pass the first ATPL theory attempt. A career program offers mentoring and airline selection preparation. A residence is about five minutes from the airport.

The site lists the phone number +33 1 89 31 65 07 and an address at Le Dome, Roissypole, Tremblay-en-France. It has news, a guide to EASA modular training and links to Instagram, LinkedIn and YouTube.
