Our aim is to make it easier to find the information students will need to progress. Whether you are looking to fly for fun or for a career we can help you in the right direction.

The website will provide a platform for service providers to ensure they are listed and can be considered by students. It is unlike similar websites:-

  • The site is designed to offer factual information. It is not intended to offer recommendations.
  • The directory of suppliers will not be restricted to only those who pay or are members of a closed group. All service providers will be listed. They will be given the option to manage their own entry – FREE OF CHARGE.
  • A forum is available. Subscription is free for users. All postings will be identifiable.

This site will continue to develop as a central resource for student pilots. The information is available elsewhere on various websites.
