Australian International Aviation College

The Australian Aerobatic Academy is a CASA-approved Part 141 flight training organisation dedicated to providing Sydney with high-quality primary flight training, aerobatic training, advanced handling and adrenaline-charged joy flights. The Academy’s mission is to provide our customers with the best possible training and customer service in a fun, friendly and supportive environment. Our team of highly skilled instructors and pilots are experienced and dedicated professionals who have qualified themselves beyond the minimum required standards to provide you with a higher level of skill. We don’t believe in the concept of producing masses of minimum-standard pilots in the minimum possible time or budget with instructors meeting the minimum experience requirements. Accordingly our small team of dedicated, experienced instructors guarantee to provide you with personalised, high quality tuition.

With over thirty years of flying tradition and experience behind us, we know what it takes to make the best airline pilots. AAPA is managed by its parent company Regional Express (Rex) which is the largest independent regional and domestic airline in Australia, recognised by experts all over the globe as the world’s best regional airline. AAPA only trains pilots to commercial airlines standards and has a much more stringent and rigorous pedagogy compared to what is prevalent amongst pilot schools catering to General Aviation. AAPA has been approved by civil aviation regulatory bodies in China, Singapore, Australia, Vietnam and the United Arab Emirates to deliver ab-initio Integrated Commercial Pilot Licence (CPL) and Air Transport Pilot Licence (ATPL) and Multi Crew Cooperation (MCC). AAPA has trained pilots for Air China, Hainan Airlines, Xiamen Airlines, Okay Airways, Scoot, Qatar Airways, China Airlines, Juneyao Airlines, Shenzhen Airlines, Tigerair, Rex, Vietnam Airlines and Air Arabia. Besides training cadets for airlines, AAPA also accepts private candidates aspiring to be airline pilots. AAPA has two large campuses at Wagga Wagga, NSW and Ballarat, VIC, and has a total combined capacity of over 400 cadets a year for its residential CPL programme.

SFC began in 1969 when a small group of local aviation enthusiasts gathered to discuss the idea of starting a flying club. Their dream was to create a community that would promote and support aviation, providing a space for like-minded people to come together and share their passion for flying. Over the years, our club has grown in size and reputation, becoming the largest aviation club on the eastern seaboard. Today, SFC is a well-respected flight training organisation that is shaping the next generation of pilots in Sydney and regional NSW, while still remaining true to its roots as a club at its core.

So you want to learn to fly a helicopter? At Australian Helicopter Pilot School, we believe the quality of the flight training we provide our students is a direct result of our highly-experienced instructors, extensive fleet and the safe, relaxed environment at each of our training schools. Our pilot training began in 1976, with the opening of Heliflite Training School. We launched Bankstown Helicopters in 1982 and Central West Helicopters in 2008, before welcoming Queensland’s Redcliffe Helicopter School to the network in 2011. In 2012, we created an umbrella organisation to manage our growing network of flight training schools. Australian Helicopter Pilot School is now one of Australia’s leading pilot training facilities, with twelve Grade 1 Instructors who hold more than 50,000 hours of flight time in total. Our helicopters are always maintained to an exemplary condition and we have our own on-site refueling facility to reduce delays between lessons. With more than 40 years experience, we understand exactly how to get the best out of every student that learns to fly with us.
