Private Pilot Training
Sherburn Aero Club has an execellent reputation for the fixed wing courses and facilities on offer. Unlike many training airfields, our students and pilots alike benefit from having four runways, grass and tarmac.
We have helped hundreds of people to learn to fly, many of those that have flown with us have gone on to become professional airline pilots with famous airlines; other have become our very own instructors, some have bought their own aircraft and fly for pleasure, and others choose to enjoy the experience of a memorable trial flying lesson or buy a gift flight as a present to a friend or loved one.
The passion for flying is what everyone who learns and continues to fly with us shares, one of the valuable benefits of being a flying club and school all in one. It is here at Sherburn Aero Club that you can come and talk to others who have the same interest and love of flight.
