Video tip: Flying internationally (FARs, flight planning, eAPIS and US Customs)
1 min read 
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.
As Sporty’s lead aviation course and video producer, Bret is usually flying an interesting airplane, and often with a camera rolling. He oversees the development, production and distribution of over 30 aviation courses from Sporty's, including the Private Pilot Learn to Fly Course. He is a flight instructor and check airman at the Sporty's Academy flight school and a senior captain on a Cessna Citation.
