The cool thing about our school is that you can buy a plane and get training on it from the same people that build them. We also specialize in taildragger training and conversions from tricycle to taildragger as well as other conversions to type on LSA planes. Feel free to give us a call.

Safe flying

There is no problem flying ind SA. You will need to apply for a student Pilot's lisence in SA if you are not the holder of a similar foreign lisence and if you are already a LSA or similar lisence holder you can do a foreign validation(I can do that for You) and off you go.
