About Us...

Choosing a flying school can be the first step in an exciting aviation career or the start of a rewarding new hobby. Our instructors have a wealth of knowledge, professional and friendly manner, and importantly an infectious passion for flight training - some are even still flying commercially.

More Information...

Easa Private Pilots License

The Private Pilots Licence permits you to act as the pilot in command of an aircraft for private use. A comprehensive qualification, the PPL syllabus includes both practical flight training and ground based study of everything you will need to know to pass the final flight test and obtain your licence. The EASA (European Aviation Safety Agency) Licence is valid throughout the UK and Europe and is usually acceptable worldwide subject to individual national requirements.

The course is a minimum of 45 hours in the air before you can take your final Skills Test, which is the aircraft equivalent of a driving test. 25 hours must be dual (with an instructor) and 10 hours solo with you acting as pilot-in-command. 5 of your solo flight hours must be cross-country flights, i.e. away from your base airfield. The remaining 10 hours is built up of revision.

Night Rating

The Night Rating can be added onto your Private Pilots License and allows you to fly at night, opening up many more flying opportunities. The course is a minimum of 5 hours training of which 3 must be dual and the remaining hours solo. You also must have completed five take off and landings whilst under supervision.
