Testimonial

Darren Brown

Captain, Being 737

“My son learnt to fly last year, and three different captains used to work here. They delivered a very high standard of training.

It was almost as if he walked out the door here, and walked into a job. From the get go, the professionalism was outstanding – it actually caught me off guard.”

Our 200-hour CPL syllabus exceeds the industry standard, offering 50 additional flight hours over the minimum requirement. Training includes single-engine operations in the Cirrus SR20 and multi-engine training in our fleet of Piper Seminoles.
