Beyond the ordinary
Our aircraft set us apart from others, and when coupled with our approach to flight training, we know we have a great solution to teach you to fly, not just to test standard, but beyond it, safely and with fun and joy at the centre of the training experience.
Starting with : our Cessna C172 "TS"
TS is a great starter aircraft, she's in good condition, and flies with a tremendous engine and control system that are more than adequate to get started.
Bigger than many school aircraft, such as a C150/C152, our 172 affords you plenty of room and comfort whilst not burdening you with a heavy, over powerful airframe.
TS is popular, predicatble and honest, making this aircraft perfect for your first flight experiences.
Your next aircraft: Our red Robin Cadet "VS"
Once you have mastered flying solo, and have a greater level of confidence and competence, you'll be ready to move up to the Robin.
Ideally suited for cross country navigation due it incredible canopy and vision, coupled with its low wing characteristics, VS is an absolute delight to fly for those longer, navigation sorties.
You will also by now have experienced high wing (TS) and low wing (VS) flying characteristics and we will work with you to ensure that as you build your hours up toward your skills test, you'll be ready to make the correct airframe choice for your test.
The jewel in our crown - WK
Our pride in owning this amazing DH Chipmunk cannot be truly captured in words alone, but we try.
WK shines, breathes, barks into life and offers the ultimate affordable flying experience. In terms of this aircraft, in the local RAF Cranwell colours, and lovingly flown by our senior pilots including two from the BBMF, we offer unique experiences in WK that we just know will make you smile.
For those student pilots that train and qualify with us we also offer a heavily discounted flying experience in the Chippie to celebrate getting your licence.
Your fleet, your progress, your enjoyment
High wing, low wing, aero's : as an equation HW+LW+A= FUN and (lots of learning!)
