Private Pilot Licence, PPL
The PPL is a licence of an internationally recognised standard and allows you to add more additional ratings than the LAPL. It requires a minimum of 45 hours of training. The PPL is a good place to start if you wish to advance to Commercial or more advanced flying than the LAPL allows. You can train for your PPL on the Cessna 172 or the Cub.

Light Aircraft Pilot licence, LAPL
The LAPL requires a minimum of 30 hours of training, with less rigorous medical standards than the PPL. It is valid within the UK for aircraft under 2,000kg and a maximum of 3 passengers. This is the ideal licence for the leisure pilot, but can easily be upgraded to a PPL by undertaking the additional training. You can train for your LAPL on the Cessna 172 or the Cub.

Go Solo
If you are unsure about tackling a full course to gain a Licence, our ‘Go solo’ course, consisting of 15 hours of training in one of our Cessna 172s or the Cub, is a good place to start. Depending on your frequency of flying and ability, it might be enough to get you to your first solo flight! If you wish at that point, you could continue your training towards a LAPL or PPL.

Flight Instructor Course, FI(A)
The FIC will take you back to the exercises covered in your own PPL, and look at them in a fresh way as you learn how to impart your flying skills, knowledge and airmanship to the next generation of pilots. We can also teach the Class Rating Instructor (CRI) course. For qualified Instructors, we can provide the training required for the removal of your ‘no applied instrument’ and ‘no night training’ restrictions.
Courses for qualified pilots
Tailwheel conversion, farm strip course, Night Rating, IR(R), cross-Channel flying, G1000 training and more…
Flying Courses for non-pilots
We can help you overcome the fear of flying. Gaining a better understanding of what is involved and taking it slowly can help you become more comfortable and maybe even begin to enjoy being in the air. If you feel like taking it a step further, our companion course will make you a more confident and knowledgeable passenger.
