Who We Are
Pilot Ground Academy is a modern online aviation learning platform dedicated to helping aspiring aviators build the knowledge, confidence, and foundation required for successful flight training and professional aviation careers.
Our academy was created on the belief that quality aviation education should be accessible to students regardless of their location, background, or financial circumstances.
Whether your goal is to become a private pilot, instrument-rated pilot, commercial pilot, flight instructor, corporate pilot, or airline pilot, PGA is designed to guide you every step of the way.
Our Story
Pilot Ground Academy was founded by Antony W. Khaemba, a pilot, aviation educator, Advanced Ground Instructor, and aviation advocate whose passion for aviation began in a small rural village in Kenya.
As a young boy, Antony looked toward the sky and dreamed that one day he would become a pilot and take his mother on an airplane for the first time.
After pursuing aviation education, earning FAA aviation certifications, and gaining aviation industry experience, including exposure to Boeing flight test operations, Antony created PGA to bridge the gap for talented students who lack access to aviation information, mentorship, and structured learning pathways.
