Instrument Flight Rating (IFR)
The Instrument Rating Course allows pilots to learn the required flight skills and procedural knowledge to operate an aircraft by the Instruments only and within Instrument Meteorological Conditions (IMC) safely. An Instrument Rating allows the pilot to fly in various weather conditions, some of which would not be possible when limited to flying under Visual […]
Private Pilot Licence (PPL) ground course | Human Factors – AIPA (February)
As machines are evolving and becoming safer, the threat of something going wrong should reduce… however, the safety equation is also balanced with our own human element. Human error creates 80% of all incidents in aviation therefore we must understand the effects that aviation has on our bodies to minimize these errors. In Human Factors, […]

Private Pilot Licence (PPL) ground course | Meteorology – AIPA (March)
Do you watch the weather on TV and understand what they are talking about? What’s a cold front and why is it bringing about a change in the weather? Meteorology is the study of the atmosphere, its patterns and variations. It is a complex science that allows those skilled in the discipline the ability to […]
Private Pilot Licence (PPL) ground course | Navigation – Night Course
‘Navigation’, includes the process of planning, recording, and controlling the movement of a craft from one place to another. As pilots, we want to successfully fly the aircraft from place to place without getting lost, or breaking any rules whilst maintaining the safety of the aircraft and its occupants. During this course, we will learn […]
CPL Meteorology | AIPA (March)
Do you know what the El Niño Southern Oscillation is and how it affects our weather here in NZ? As a professional pilot, you will need to be well-disciplined in interpreting forecasts and weather phenomena. By joining our CPL meteorology course you will build on the knowledge gained in PPL to a much higher level. […]
Private Pilot Licence (PPL) ground course | Air Law – AIPA (March)
How old do I have to be to fly an aircraft solo? When am I able to take my family flying with me? How far from the cloud do I have to fly? We will give you the answers to all these questions and many more on our PPL Air Law ground course. Rules and […]
