The rates below are applicable to customers undergoing flight training and hire with the Academy. For joy flight prices, please see our JOY FLIGHTS page.
Whilst aircraft and instructor rates may vary from time to time, we always strive to give you the very best value for money. Our charging regime is relatively unique in that where possible, our hire rates are based on airborne time plus a fixed ground time component. This means better value for money as you don’t unnecessarily pay for engine warm-up in the middle of winter, ground-based delays and taxi-in time! It also encourages proper engine warm-up time which means greater reliability and safety long-term.
All our prices include GST & landing / movement fees at Bankstown (YSBK) and are current as of 01 July 2023.
