Our Aircraft 

We have 2 aircraft at our disposal: a Piper PA-28 Cherokee and a Cessna 150. The PA-28 seats 4 people and is capable for flying for 5 hours on one tank of fuel. It has a full IFR fit, including 2 x VOR, ILS, DME ADF and 2  radios. It cruises at about 100 knots, so is definitely suitable for touring and is fully insured and equipped for overseas flight.

The weight and balance calculator is provided for educational purposes only. As pilot in command, you are solely responsible for ensuring all data and calculations are correct.


The Cessna 150 seats 2 plus limited luggage and is a good instructional aircraft as well as being a capable tourer for 2 people. It has sufficient instrumentation to allow pilots to use it to train for their IMC ratings.

The aircraft iare serviced every 50 flying hours by a company in East Winch. Each service is progressively more thorough, until the 150 hour check, which takes about a week as the aircraft is stripped right down. After that, the cycle of 50 hour checks starts again.  Once a year, all aircraft have a comprehensive annual service and every 3 years, their Public Transport Certificate of Airworthiness is re-tested and renewed.
