Great Weather, Great Trips, Fly our J-230!

Our J-230 is starting to see a growing number of new and regular local and Melbourne-based pilots getting checked out and  hiring 5142 for those longer trips around Victoria. 

There's also a slowly growing number of PPL and even CPL multi-engine/NVFR qualified pilots, taking the opportunity to do a GA to RAA conversion in the J-230.  One smart GA/RA pilot is even planning to use the J-230 to build flying hours in a higer performance aircraft, in preparation for future commercial pilot training.

Speak to CFI Manny Peralta if you are interested in getting checked out in the J-230 (M| 0447747138)

Congratulations to the 4 people from Melbourne and Ballarat who just
started their RAA pilot certificate training at Inbound Aviation in
February. Some are existing GA pilots; one has a commercial pilot's
license doing a GA-RA conversion in our new "glass-cockpit" J-230

Now is a great time to learn to fly!

The weather is perfect - with plenty of available sunlight thanks to daylight savings.

Give Manny a call and book your flight training today!

Congratulations to Dwayne Arthur who achieved his FIRST SOLO this month!

A really great effort since Dwayne work for the RAAF and drives all the way from Williamtowm, and hopes to further his career prospects with his flying.
Graeme Wishart from the Geelong also achieved his GA to RA conversion in our new J-230.
As an experienced GA pilot/aircraft owner, he's interested on one day owning a J-230, and what a great way to progress that dream: do an RA conversion in our J-230!

One of our pilots recently flew the J-230 to Sydney and came back - the scenic route via "VICTOR 1"

News about our J-230 is growing with a small number of pilots from all over Melbourne, driving to Ballarat to fly this great machine.
January 2010 could be a busy month for our J-230.

  ---***MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A SAFE AND HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL***---

The recent launch of our Aviation Theory Courses was marked by
three groups of recreational aviation (RA)pilots who have completed
our general aviation Private Pilot Theory Course (PPL). Lectured by
former airline academy senior ground instructors, the overall
feedback has been positive.  Attendees did the course specifically
to gain greater knowledge of navigation, meteorology and air law
topics.

Our RA theory courses also got a boost with our first group of RA
pilots completing the 1-day Human Factors course.  Cost of this
course includes theory lectures and the exam, with the logbook being
endorsed as appropriate.

Courses can be delivered to individuals or small groups, with the
potential for after hours lectures for working people.  Contact CFI
Manny for details.

Our CASA PPL Theory Courses Take-OFF!

Several experienced RA-Aus pilots have recently taken up the challenge of attending Inbound Aviations GA PPL Theory course.
