Drone Pilot Courses In Adelaide Near Me

4worldlovers:
At Flight Training Adelaide (FTA) we provide world-class, customised aviation training solutions for the fixed wing and rotary wing industry.


Airline pilot training in Australia requires the appropriate theory knowledge and flying skills to be able cope in an ever-changing flying environment. Flight Training Adelaide (FTA) is a CASA approved integrated flying school, offering an AVI50222 Diploma of Aviation (Commercial Pilot Licence – Aeroplane) for fixed wing and AVI50319 Diploma of Aviation (Commercial Pilot Licence – Helicopter) for rotary wing, with a training ethos focussed on producing future captains through customised face-to-face ground theory and practical flying training.


FTA, an internationally respected flying school in Australia, is located at Parafield Airport, South Australia. The college started operations in 1982 and over the years has had a number of corporate owners, including Hawker de Havilland and BAE SYSTEMS. In 2005 the college was purchased by Hong Kong-based Young Brothers Aviation.

FTA offers airline cadet and self-funded aviation training programs to domestic and international students, including a full range of services like selection, ab initio training and advanced training courses. All FTA training programs are based on integrated learning. This ensures that the student’s theory knowledge, aircraft handling skills, aviation law knowledge and cockpit management skills develop simultaneously. FTA also provides theory classes for the ATPL in Australia.

Our training ethos is focussed on producing future airline and helicopter captains, rather than simply training cadets to obtain a licence . To achieve this we have made, and continue to make, considerable infrastructure and asset investments to supply appropriate aircraft and simulators for training.

Our campuses have been purposefully designed and built for pilot training in Adelaide, South Australia and Wellcamp, Queensland, with theory classrooms, simulators, aircraft maintenance and administration facilities. The aircraft parking areas and student accommodation are within the campus boundary.

Our highly trained and committed staff ensure that the environment and content of our courses complement our facilities and exceed the expectations of our customer airlines, helicopter operators and candidates.

We work alongside researchers, students, natural resource managers and industry partners throughout South Australia to provide research and consultancy services and customised training solutions.
