About Decision Altitude
We're airline captains and instructors who got tired of watching good people make bad training decisions.
We Started Where You're Heading
We kept seeing the same thing: smart, motivated people picking the wrong school, the wrong pathway, or starting before they were ready, because nobody independent was telling them the truth.
Flight schools are in the business of selling training. They're not going to talk you out of enrolling. And the gap between what their marketing promises and what actually happens inside costs people years and tens of thousands of euros.
We've been through it ourselves, from the first training decision all the way to the left seat. We built Decision Altitude because we wanted to be the honest voice we didn't have when we were starting out.

Mission & Vision
Know What You're Getting Into
Picking a flight school, stuck mid-training, weighing a type rating offer, prepping for command. These are expensive decisions to get wrong. We're here so you don't have to guess. We don't sell training, we don't have partnerships, and our advice comes from doing this job every day.
Better Decisions, Less Waste
Too many pilots commit six figures to training based on a school's marketing page and a gut feeling. Others pick airlines without understanding what they're signing up for. We think every pilot deserves a straight conversation with someone who has no stake in the outcome.
