Lilydale Airport Flying School, Joy Flights & Skydiving

Joy Flights from Lilydale Airport are popular with travellers as they offer scenic aerial views of the Yarra Valley. On a clear day, nothing beats watching the sunset over the Yarra Valley as you view the beautiful vineyards from above. Popular sightings aboard joy flights include the Melbourne CBD, Albert Park Lake and Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG).

Many visitors also use Lilydale Airport to charter flights to and from the Yarra Valley. Charter flights offer travellers the flexibility to travel to places that are inaccessible by other means of transport within an efficient time frame. You are also able to travel when it suits you in luxury and comfort. The cost of charter flights will depend on your destination and bookings need to be made with individual providers ahead of time.

With certified instructors on hand, you can learn to fly by learning the fundamental skills required to safely control an aircraft. Once you have attained your pilot certificate, you are free to fly whenever you like within the local area of the aerodrome.

The Lilydale airport is conveniently located just one hour from the Melbourne CBD.

Full Dynon Avionics. ADSB out. AP (Just done the 100Hrly) I can get the insurer to email of a cert of currency.

    The Aircraft is hangered on my property 12Miles Sth of Bendigo. I will fly to Lilydale for the Training. I can stay in the area to ensure there is adequate time. If I could have access to the loan car re refuelling (Mogas) & me getting to & from local accommodation.

    I have a Part 61 CASA Lic. I feel I need to obtain these endorsements to be a more knowledgeable / competent & therefor a much safer pilot.

    If you could please put together a pre study plan / relevant doc’s & email that to me that would be great.

    I would like to build up a relationship with the school re my Bi Annual flight review’s & also to have someone I can call on re aviation issues should the need arise.

    Thanks
    Rod
