What our students say

I completed my Multi-Engine Instrument Rating at this college and found the training to be well-structured, focused, and professional. The environment supported growth, with instructors who truly cared about helping students become confident, capable pilots.

Kshitiz Acharya

Charter Pilot

Having been to a few flight schools for various licences and ratings, Fly Oz has by far been the best experience on my Aviation Journey. All the staff are amongst some of the nicest, helpful and genuine people you’ll meet in Aviation who show the utmost respect and care for you and your training needs. They set a high standard for quality over quantity and produce highly competent and confident pilots in the industry through their ability to help you realise your potential in a positive training environment.

Amelia Newington

Charter Pilot

I’ve just completed my Design Features Endorsements (Retractable undercarriage & Manual Propeller Pitch Control) with Fly Oz. I cannot speak highly enough of the professionalism displayed from the CEO/owners down through to the office staff and the 3 instructors I dealt with (I have no doubt the others are just as brilliant given how the organisation is run).
