I wear spectacles or lenses - can I still
learn to fly? |
|

Generally yes, with proper prescriptive spectacles or
lenses you should have no problems. The required medical examination
will provide the necessary recommendations. |

Is flying safe? |
|
|
|
Generally, flying is a safe activity if proper safety
procedures are carried out. Our instructors teach safety as a first
priority in every situation and our syllabus reflects that.
Our fleet of aircraft are maintained with the highest
standards, and together with stringent pre-flight checks ensure
safe and trouble free flying. |
