Aviation is proud to offer you the following courses:

in a light aircraft with one of our dedicated instructors (this is a lot
of fun) or, as a gift to a friend or family. |
| 2:
Student Pilot Licence: issued by the CFI free of charge on passing
medical with a CASA approved doctor |
| 3:
General Flying Progress Test (GFPT) training
as a student pilot and after approximately 23 hours with an instructor (you
will probably go solo in 12 to 14 hours- could be as little as 8) and 12
hours solo (pilot in command), the CFI will test you for the GFPT -a passenger
carrying privilege- You can now take your friends for a flight to the training
area and show off your new acquired skills. |
| 4:
Private Pilot Licence (PPL)
the final place of training as a student pilot comes with approximately
a further 22 hrs cross-country training. With our navigator techniques,
you will find great satisfaction and no stress in knowing where you are
at all time -not using radio navigation aids- the CFI will test you for
your licence and you will join the ranks of some of well known pilots he
has passed. Once you have gained the PPL, aircraft are available for hire,
(you pay only the flying time), you and your friends can explore Australia,
spend some time in the beautiful Flinders Ranges, Ayers Rock, Kakadu National
Park etc. |
| 5:
Night Visual Flight Rules (VFR)
This is an endorsement on your licence, allowing you to fly cross-country
at night. It enables you to arrive at your destination after dark in good
weather or to do a beautiful flight with your friends over Sydney Harbour,
one of the best sights in the world. Training time is an extra 12 hrs approximately
on top of PPL. |
| 6:
Multi Engine Endorsement (MEE), this is a thorough course
of approximately 7 hours flying. It covers all the normal and emergency
procedures in flying a multi engine aircraft |
| 7:
Commercial Pilot Licence (CPL)
our syllabus covers Commercial integrated 150 hour course and the more integrated
allows 200 hour course. These courses give our students maximum value for
money. We incorporate the multi engine instrument rating within the course
rather than paying several thousand dollars after passing the Commercial
test. We believe in maximum achievement in each hour flown. The CPL enables
you to fly passengers or freight for hire or reward. |

8:
Command Instrument Rating (CIR)
You can obtain your Command Instrument Rating on either a single or
twin engine Duchess The duchesses are the best coloured weather radar,
fully coupled auto pilot/ Flight Director systems and RMI /fixed card

Training time is approximately 20 hours in the synthetic trainer and 22
hours in the aircraft.
You will be trained by the most experienced instructor in the country.
Bill has been teaching IFR since 1970, and gained a strong reputation
for upholding the highest standard in his instrument rating training approach.
The CFI has CASA delegations for tests.
