Trial Flight

If you are deciding whether you really want to become a pilot, you can arrange an inexpensive Trial Instructional Flight. You'll get to fly the aeroplane and feel what it's like to be in control of a light plane.

Medical

You'll see an approved Aviation Medical Examiner and pass through a series of tests including medical and eye-sight checks. (If you're planning a career as a pilot you'll want to pass the commercial pilot medical before you start.)

Student Pilot Licence

Once you begin your training, we will issue your Student Pilot Licence.

Air Work

You'll fly dual for the first few hours, learning the basics. You'll spend time in the Training Area and quite a bit of time in the "Circuit" practising your landings and your cabin drills.

First Solo

When you're proficient at your Circuit work you'll go solo.

One take-off and landing completes the first solo.

You'll alternate between dual and solo training for the next few training hours. You'll practice steep turns, forced landings, precautionary landings and flying on instruments.

Theory

You'll sit the Basic Aeronatical Knowledge test and you'll be ready to take your General Flying Progress Test and get your licence.

Navexes

After that there's Navigation exercises when you'll fly outside the training area, initially dual and then solo. When you're ready, you'll take the test and you'll be a fully-fledged pilot.
