Visit the Jandakot Airport Air Traffic Control Tower. Climb all the way to the top and meet the ATC staff that keep us safe in the air. See how they manage so many aircraft without issue day in day out. Dealing with different aircraft types, speeds and operators including police helicopters or the Royal Flying Doctors Service. You will be with them whilst they work
Visit The Royal Flying Doctors Service and speak with real world line pilots who operate not just around Perth, but out in remote Australia. Get an up-close look at how these pilots manage not only their high performance aircraft but also passengers in need keeping them safe for their journey.
All School Holidays programs allows access to the "Airside" part of the airport (where the aircraft are parked, taxi and takeoff). Walking across taxiways and passed aircraft to get to ours for the flight training. Students are more than welcome to take photos whilst we are Airside so long as the instructor deems it safe to do so. Please ask prior we are more than happy to provide :)
All time flown in the plane and in the sim can be logged in the students logbook. This will count towards any licence they choose to pursue in the future.
