  PPL COURSES

Our package deal for a full time PPL course includes 45 hours of flying, based landing fees, ground school, written and flight tests, and use of all necessary equipment. Our cross country routes are over mainland France, giving the dual advantages of uncluttered airspace in France and more formal control within the Channel Islands Control Zone.

With helpful and efficient Air Traffic Control, Guernsey is an ideal place to train for an IMC rating. ILS's to both ends of the runway are supplemented by VOR, NDB, DME radar and VDF all on our base airfield. What more could one ask? Contact us for details of the full time package for the IMC course.

If you would like to learn how to use the aircraft radio aids without taking a full IMC course, why not consider the "AOPA RADIO NAVIGATION CERTIFICATE". This course consists of 5 hours of flying visually but using VOR, ADF and DME to navigate by.

If you later decide to obtain an IMC rating, the AOPA Radio Navigation Certificate counts as a full five hours towards the IMC.

If you wish, both the IMC and the Radio Navigation Course can include a cross country flight to a French airfield without incurring any extra flying time.

Open until 2100 local daily, Guernsey is ideal for obtaining your night rating. A full time package for the night rating can be arranged.

All our courses are tailored to your individual requirements - full time, split courses or spread over a period of time; whatever suits you.
