Video tip: Flying internationally (FARs, flight planning, eAPIS and US Customs)

One of the most rewarding trips you can take after earning your pilot certificate is leaving the U.S. and heading to new destinations in Canada, Mexico or the Caribbean. This week’s video tip takes a look at what it takes to fly internationally, including flight planning, extra equipment requirements and how to file the required eAPIS paperwork with U.S. Customs and Border Protection.

This segment appears in Sporty’s Commercial Pilot Training course, which features over 13 hours of HD video training and VR/360 flight maneuvers.
