Our Aircraft
Did you know that most light aircraft at flying schools around the country are now an average of around 30 years old? Ask other schools how old their aircraft are when you call and you'll be surprised but not at Flight Academy. We operate clean, well equipped aircraft with modern technology and high quality decor for your maximum pleasure. Why should you fly aircraft that have had long hard lives when you can enjoy such high standards of quality at extremely competitive prices.
