Learn to Fly

As well as being a flying club, Sherburn Aero Club has a long history of providing flight training and flying lessons. Whether you are completely new to flying and want to have a trial flight experience, have done some training already and want to do your Private Pilot's Licence (PPL) or Commercial Pilot's Licence (CPL), or maybe want to renew some of your flight training skills or qualifications, then Sherburn is the place to come.

Here at Sherburn Aero Club we are passionate about flight training and want each and every person who chooses to train with us to have the very best experience possible and to achieve their flight training goals. Being a flying club and a flight training school, as well as formal training with your instructor we have a wealth of knowledge and experience across our members to help you on your journey.

If you learn how to fly a plane and get your Private Pilot's Licence you may want to hire an aircraft from us, get a part share in an aircraft, or perhaps buy your own aircraft. We can help you with all this.
