A pilot requires an Instrument Rating to fly under instrument flight rules (IFR).
Under these conditions the pilot is unable to use external visual references for navigation and flies the aircraft solely based on the instruments in the cockpit. This is also a requirement for employment as a professional pilot and is a prerequisite for the ATPL.

Amazing flight school. Achieved private, instrument and commercial licenses. A more hands on one on one experience with dedicated CFI’s compared to Pilot-mill schools. Ryan, Naomy, Jake, and Nia have been wonderful CFIs to work with. Also Alberto at the front desk is super helpful. Not to mention new 2023 piper archer aircrafts with g1000. Highly recommend for flight training.

"A beautiful place full of beautiful people. I've been to more than a few flight schools and Aamro remains my #1 choice for training and renting. When it comes to aircraft, instructors, and quality - Aamro is top tier!"

In April 2024, my wife and I had the delightful experience of training at AAMRO to complete the necessary 25 flight hours for her airline application. We chose AAMRO based on the excellent online reviews, their modern aircraft fleet, and particularly because one of the employees, Alberto, is also from our beloved Panama 🇵🇦. From the start, the process was efficient and digital: we managed licenses and insurance online, which made it easy for us just to sign some documents upon arrival. Our checkout flight was with Ryan, a CFI whose positive attitude and rigorous focus on safety made our experience exceptionally enjoyable and safe. Flying from Lantana, an airport with heavy traffic and located beneath a Charlie airspace, was a unique experience. The aircraft, equipped with G1000 avionics, was in perfect condition, ensuring a hassle-free flight. I highly recommend AAMRO to those looking to build flight hours. The quality, price, reliability, and safety they offer are top-notch. Thank you, AAMRO, for a memorable experience!

"I've always enjoyed aviation as an observer so my wife got me a great birthday present...a 45 mins introductory flight with Aamro in Lantana, FL. It was an awesome experience and I enjoyed my time flying over the Atlantic and westward to the wetlands. My pilot was outstanding and very patient with me! I recommend Aamro Aviation!"

"My girlfriend bought me a 45-minute intro flight for my 50th birthday from these guys and I could not be happier. Professional, personable and knowledgeable. My instructor was Arial (I kid you not) and he was fantastic. I felt 100% the entire time and he answered a barrage of questions and guided me through taking the controls for a few maneuvers. Can't recommend them highly enough!"
