Commercial Flight
Training We are approved by the CAA to
provide the full range of modular advanced training programmes, including
MEP, CPL, IR and
FI courses. The Teesside region offers an ideal training
environ-ment, with controlled
airspace surrounding the airport but plenty of uncontrolled airspace
nearby in which to conduct general handling. There is easy access to the
airways system and major airports such as Leeds and Newcastle are only a
short distance away. This produces a good balance, with virtually
unrestricted training facilities at base but realistically busy
conditions nearby. The airport itself offers good facilities, with ILS on
both runways, along with NDB and DME stations and an excellent radar
service from co-operative ATC personnel.
FLying
Instructor Course
Training is available for the FI(R),
IRI, CRI, night and aerobatics ratings.Candidates can opt for the C152, C172, PA28 or Bulldog. The Seneca V is used for CRI
training.
Commercial Pilot Licence Course
Pilots
with an MEP rating undertake a 25 hours course; those without can combine the
MEP rating with the CPL in a 28 hour course. Single engine training can be in
the C172 , whilst the multi engine art of the syllabus takes place in the
PA44 Seminole.
Multi Engine Rating
Making use of the PA44, the MEP rating requires six hours of flying and seven hours of ground training,
along with a written examination and a flight test.
Instrument Rating
Both
the single engine and multi engine IR are offered. Students with a CPL/MEP
will train in our FNTP2 simulator and PA44 Seminole.Combining the
simulator and aircraft reduces overall training costs to to student.
Ab Initio to Frozen
ATPL The school offers one of the
few courses designed to take beginners right through to a professional
licence without having to leave the UK. This has many advantages, not least
of which is the option to carry on earning a living during training. Staying
in the UK also gives a student better control of his or her training and
takes away a lot of the risk and financial worry.
