Visiting New Airfields
After you have obtained your licence, you will want to leave your training area and explore the country! One of the most daunting challenges facing the newly qualified pilot is to land away at new airfields.

Flight Sport Aviation can help you with this challenge.

Unusual Attitudes & Emergency Situations
Whilst the initial flight training covers these topics, it is very important for a pilot to keep these skills alive with frequent training.

Our instructors will help to keep these skills current and help you to stay safe.

Touring
