  • "Booked a surprise flight experience for my boyfriend with Peter, who went above and beyond to make it unforgettable! Peter was professional, patient, and even filmed part of it. My boyfriend loved getting to fly the plane himself and now wants to continue. The location was a bit tricky to find, but overall, a 10/10 experience—thanks, Peter!"

  • "Did flight revision training and my bi annual with the guys at Flightscope. Found all the instructors approachable and knowledgeable with a wealth of industry experience. Flightscope go the extra mile to ensure competence as a pilot."

    Brian

  • "I trained at FlightScope in 2018 on a recommendation with minimal prior experience, and the team’s high standards have proven invaluable. I went on to earn my RAAus instructor rating and commercial pilot's licence there, later realising how thorough their training was compared to other schools. Now, running my own flight school, I can truly appreciate the quality they delivered. Highly recommend FlightScope for flight training!"

    Brian

  • "Had an absolutely, stunning and unforgettable experience with the one hour introductory flight course with Josh D and Tom. Helped take a lot of photos without me asking. Not only was it fun flying but Josh kept it concise and didn't bore us too much with the pre flight theory. Would 100% recommend for those who haven't tried flying before."

    Riccardo

  • "The instructors at Flightscope are highly experienced and knowledgeable. While my son thoroughly enjoyed his first flying lesson. My experience included the most incredible views, smoothest of flights, instructors are passionate about flying, interesting facts about the plane, flight stories and a few laughs - it was an experience of a lifetime. This experience needs to be on your bucket list. :) I would highly recommend Flightscope Aviation."

    Donna

  • "Amazing!!!! Brilliant experience with flight scope. I got the pass on groupon. Was a bit sceptical regarding how much they would let me fly it. But was I in for a surprise. I had already studied about the aircraft when I went it but they were nice enough to explain it anyways. Once airborne, it was mine to fly. Was very thrilling and fun. I would recommend it to everyone. It was so much fun, I'm actually thinking of getting a pilots licence. The trainer make it a fun experiences. Thanks guys!"

They're all fantastic instructors; very knowledgeable, patient and passionate about teaching flying. The aircraft are modern, safe, clean and well maintained; they're a joy to fly. I can't recommend Flightscope highly enough."

The banter on the ground was taken to a different level....Thanks Rod from us all and the video podcast was very good value."

After quick paperwork and a thorough briefing, he had me on the controls in no time! FlightScope even offered a video of the experience so I could relive the moment.
