Why train at Rand Airport?
Rand airport is in close proximity to the
General Flying Area and other major airports giving the student
more flying time per lesson and as a result training being done
more efficiently. It has four different runway directions to
accommodate any wind conditions and access to navigational
facilities. It is a manned airport with air traffic control in a
controlled airspace allowing for radio and other procedures being
practised properly. In addition, it is less congested with no
time delays unlike other busy airports. Great weather conditions
all year round in a friendly atmosphere and clear spectator
viewing for family and friends from the Airport restaurant Cafe.
How do I get started?
Contact the academy and make
a booking for an Introductory Flight.
An Intro-flight is usually half an hour where the instructor
will explain the basics of flying and let you take control of the
aircraft in order to experience firsthand what light aircraft
flying is all about. This half hour flight can be added in your
personal Pilot’s logbook should you decide to go ahead with your
PPL training.
If you have done partial PPL or CPL training we will do an
individual evaluation and set up a training plan on what is
required to complete your License. If you already have a PPL or a
CPL, we can look at what flying has already been done and advise
you on your next step of training.
