Our People
Cape Town Flying Club has several highly qualified full-time and part-time instructors. This ensures that you will be able to find an instructor suited to your schedule and learning style. Most students settle down happily with the first instructor allocated to them, but changes are possible where required.
The common feature in all our flying staff is their dedication to the task of turning out safe, competent pilots.
