"An unforgettable wonderful experience. My instructor is a great pilot who is friendly and patient. We flew over prospect reservior, warragamba dam, katoomba and Blackheath. It's hard to describe the beauty of the scenery along the way. It's best to experience it yourself"

"Booked in a Northern Beaches trial flight a few weeks back and had a awesome time. I enjoyed every minute of it. Afterwards a few members of the SFC team reached out and helped me set up my first lessons to start my RPL training. Looking forward to beginning my aviation studies with these guys!
