How it works

-Sign up for the course, either starting 1 September 2011 or 1 February 2012 (pay a 10% deposit).

-We will arrange the necessary insurance and police clearances with you before you arrive in SA.

-We do the rest: 

• Accommodation in Cape Town is part of the package organised for you (see accommodation).
• For getting around town we can either organise you a rental car or public transport.
• While at the airport you will do one to two flying lessons a day and spend the rest of the time soaking in aviation and studying. A flying lesson takes 2 – 3 hours.
• Most people complete their pilots licence in two months.
• We only accept 6 students per course, in order to provide high quality personalised service. Book now to avoid disappointment.

-When you return to your home country you can easily convert your licence so that you can use it at home.

-Please take a look at the photos in the gallery so that you have a good idea of the high standard of training, facilities and accommodation we offer at Civair

Accommodation

Accommodation is at a beautiful B & B in Pinelands, Cape Town called Pine Cottage. Pinelands is 10 minutes drive from the airport and 15 minutes from the Cape Town CBD and the V & A waterfront.
