Royal Aero Club of WA

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.

Air Combat Australia is a Sydney-based flying organisation established in 1992. The company is based at the beautiful Camden Airport, approximately 45 minutes from the Sydney CBD, where the skies are relatively uncongested allowing more flexibility in flight times for our clients. After beginning jet fighter operations on military contracts, Air Combat Australia pioneered the jet fighter “TOP GUN” experience for a day concept in the Southern Hemisphere in 1996 with two MiG-15 Fighters. Since then we have taken tens of thousands of thrill seekers on their choice of air combat experiences in the previous 25 years, currently flying the L-39 Albatros. Air Combat Australia has also previously held military fast jet training contracts for overseas governments. Our standard of flying is the envy of all pilots who aspire to achieve the very highest of standards in flying skills and proficiency. It goes without saying that not all are capable of making the grade! ACA also operates in conjunction with Atlas Aviation Australia Pty Ltd, our civilian flight training school operating from the same facility, conducting flight training from RPL through to frozen ATPL.

FAST Aviation was established in 2016 in response to local and regional demand for professional aircraft charter and advanced pilot training. We have grown steadily and safely from a single Beechcraft Baron aircraft and one owner pilot/instructor, to four company-owned Beechcraft Barons (plus a Cessna 172!) and six full time pilots/instructors. We are fortunate to be able to attract quality and committed staff who have experience in many aspects of commercial aviation, from entry level general aviation to wide-body airline training & checking. Our pilots/flight instructors have collectively logged over 45,000 hours of flight time between them. We hold an Air Operators Certificate from the Civil Aviation Safety Authority for Part 135 air transport operations (previously known as charter operations), as well as a Part 141 Certificate for flight training. The company is proudly Northern Rivers based and locally owned.
