The Academy is run by an ex SAFAir Captain and most of the staff are ex SAA pilots. The Academy is very popular with learners coming from all over South Africa and from overseas as well. The Academy is based in the town of George, which is a beautiful area on the renowned Garden Route.
The Academy has seven aircraft and all the instructors are fully qualified to SA Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) requirements.
The Private Pilots Licence (PPL) is taken on either the Cessna 152 or the Piper Tomahowk. It is an eight week course and should be completed in that time. However it may take a little longer if adverse weather conditions prevail. 45 hours is the minimum requirement to obtain your PPL. This is subject to instructor recommendations. 90% of students finish within this time frame.
Getting there is easy with frequent flights to George and a wide variety of accommodation is available.
