BURLINGTON, N.C. – Elon Aviation at the Burlington-Alamance Regional Airport (KBUY) now offers live online video-based ground school, enabling students to learn in the comfort of their own home.
“Students’ time is valuable, and ground instruction often goes to the back burner even when weather prevents us from flying,” said Elon Aviation Chief Flight Instructor Chris Whittle. “We want our students to continue to progress through their training by offering real-time ground instruction they can access in their home, office, or even while traveling.”
Through live online ground instruction, students can immediately respond to and ask questions of their instructor. It provides an interactive element that’s not found in pre-packaged training sessions, and personalized training that group courses can’t provide.
Sessions typically last one to two hours.

Elon Aviation also expects to expand its reach beyond the North Carolina Triad and Triangle areas.
It will continue to provide in-aircraft training in its facility at the Burlington-Alamance Regional Airport, but its online ground school is available to students across the U.S.
