Starting Your Training

Flying is one of the most exciting and exhilarating things you can do with your pants on. Don't miss the chance to experience the thrill and freedom of flying. Whether you dream of becoming a commercial pilot, want to enjoy flying as a recreational pilot, want to become a competition "ace", or just want to experience the thrill of a trial flight, this is an opportunity you shouldn't let slip by.

Our staff and instructors are here to help. Our aim is to make your introduction to the North Shore Aero Club and your first flying experience as simple and enjoyable as possible.

Before you start training with us you need to join the club. Information on how to join is available in our Joining the club section.

There are several ways to start your training. Although not compulsory, we recommend that you first take a trial flight to get the feel of what flying a light aircraft is all about. Your trial flight will be a dual flight (with an instructor) during which you will have the opportunity to fly the aeroplane yourself. Most people are on a 'high' for days after that.

If you have any questions about getting started with the North Shore Aero Club, please contact us. We are more than happy to help.
