I recently trained through South Canterbury Aero Club for my PPL and Cherokee rating. All I can say about it is that I was so happy with the results by the end of it, Aaron and his team had given me the training and expertise to become a confident aviator and finally begin learning on my own. The aircraft are top notch, their fleet of 2 Tomahawks, a Cessna 150, a Piper Cherokee Archer, Cub are kept to a very high standard. The instructors are always friendly and very keen to help you get on the path to whatever you want to do in aviation. Whether that be a pilot recreationally or a commercial pilot aspiring to a career in the airlines, flying bush planes, skydive planes, surveying, instruction, the works. There is little they can’t do but if they can’t do it themselves they know the very best options for you. At South Canterbury Aero Club the club atmosphere is always very welcoming. There is an abundance of members who are always flying, socialising, and often offering to take people up in their private aircraft.  All in all should you choose to fly at South Canterbury Aero Club I can guarantee you will enjoy your time there and come out a pilot ready to take on the many challenges New Zealand has to throw at you!
