our team

We are a tight-knit team of dedicated and passionate pilots, all driven by a strong passion for aviation in its global sense. Most of our flight instructors work part-time with us, some of them for many years, and their motivation and commitment represent one of the best assets of our school.

A dedicated and accessible team

We come from diverse horizons and we’ve had different life paths before we became pilots (private or commercial) but we are all filled with the same passion: aviation! Be it for leisure or commercial purposes, we all love to fly! Our instructors work in parallel for major airlines (Volotea, Brussels Airlines, TUI, ASL Cargo Airlines, etc.) or in other economic sectors.
