Aircraft Fleet
Quality Aircraft, quality Facilities, quality People |
With 17 aircraft on-line Redcliffe Aero Club operates one of the largest range of flying training aircraft in Australia. From small and simple basic trainers, to large and complex charter and IFR aircraft.
What ever your needs or stage of training we have an aircraft to suit. This means that within the one friendly organisation, you can easily transition between types as your skill, experience and training progresses.
Being an "Aero Club" means to you that the profits generated from our flying operations are returned to the membership through the purchase of late-model, quality aircraft, developing quality facilities and retaining quality Instructors
