Learn to fly at Tocumwal
SportAviation is situated in Tocumwal, which offers scenic views that can be enjoyed by all. If you want to learn to fly, hire a sports aircraft, or simply go up for a Trial Instructional Flight (TIF), SportAviation has much to offer.
Anyone new to flying will soon realise that Tocumwal is an ideal place to learn. With long and wide runways, and flat open fields, you have plenty of room to learn.
Our team of professional instructors will ensure you receive quality training, and you will learn in a pleasant, comfortable and low air traffic environment.
Unlike busier aerodromes, Tocumwal is quiet enough to ensure students can spend more time in the air, and less time on the ground. This is Australia's best kept secret, so why wait on the ground at another aero club when you can be flying today. Book now by emailing us or calling Eddie direct on 0427 534 122.
