Our Aircraft

Modern, well-maintained and fully insured aircraft

Since the club's founding in 2009 we have trained our pilots and flown on several different aircraft. We currently fly a Cavalon, a Calidus and an MTO Sport Classic. They are modern and well-maintained, suited for both training and free-flying. We keep the bar high.
