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.
