LEARNING TO FLY...A view into a modern light aircraft

Most people have, at some time or other, wondered what it must be like to fly a light aircraft. You are about to embark on an adventure that has been a wonder of man since the dawn of time. At a Flight Centre, you can be taken from your first fledgling flight to becoming a confident Private Pilot Licence holder.

Our Flight Centres are run by a team of aviation professionals who are highly experienced in the field of flight training with the most varied fleet on the field, ranging from the smaller single-engine 2 place Piper Super Cub, 4 place Grumman Travellor, Tiger and Piper Warriors all the way through to the larger twin-engine aircraft. Generally students start training for their PPL in either the Grumman or the Piper Warrior. Both of these types of aircraft are superb trainers with sound handling characteristics. It is entirely up to you which aircraft you will do the course in.

Completing your PPL on one aircraft does not limit you to fly that aircraft forever more. A few hours of 'conversion check out' with a club instructor will entitle you to fly other aircraft which fall within your license privileges, (in this case, 'Single Engine (Piston) Land - more of this later!)

In addition to the actual fleet, facilities include a warm and friendly clubhouses, teams of professionals and dedicated Instructors, numerous briefing/planning rooms, flight simulators for instrument training and often a private restaurant and bar for club members and their families and friends.
