Testimonials
I would love to say a huge thank you to each and every one of you, from Lara at the front door all the way to the Gentleman sweeping in the hangers. I felt that each and every one of you took interest in me and made me feel welcome. The professionalism I was shown was heart-warming and I am sad that I wasn't able to do more flying with you!
Out of my almost 200 hours, I can confidently say that this was, if not the best experience and flight of my journey!
I will most certainly be back to do my ME IR rating!
Hi FTC, Just a short note to say thanks to a great team !
I started my training with you, and have used you for my renewals ever since. My last trip, was a great experience. From booking my test - to completing it - was an absolute pleasure ! I was contacted before to say who was testing me, told to give a call an hour before (to get a weather check). When I arrived I was introduced to the instructor, Terrence, by liason officer (Luis, I think) - given a briefing on what we would be doing and told about the current CAA requirements. From the time I started doing my pre-flight to engine shut-down procedures I felt totally at ease and thoroughly enjoyed my test - leaving the field with confidence, Your admin staff took over, the paper-work was completed and I received my licence today (had to have it urgently by tomorrow to collect my plane in Bloem tomorrow).
Hi Wally,
I hope all is still going well in George. 🏖️
I was asked today if I’ve ever done any gliding, and told the story of you sponsoring all of us at the school to go for an intro in an SF25B many moons ago. I’ve told so many people about it over the years, but I don’t know why it hasn’t occurred to me to say thank you for it again! It’s an indelible memory and it, as well as all your other input in the development of myself personally and professionally, has been invaluable.
Thank you, and may you be blessed for everything you’ve put into so many of us over so many years! 🙏🙏🙏
Fly / train safe and look forward to seeing you again in George one day!
I was most impressed with the professional manner in which I was received and treated at your flying school this afternoon. Thankyou for your efforts and taking the time and trouble to show us your simulator. I have made my decision to do my PPL with your college as I have experienced real professionalism and passion from you and your staff, especially Cornell who is an absolute star and a great help and inspiration giving prospective novices like me a lot of encouragement.
Kind regards and thanks.
