Location

Cape Town Flying Club is located at Cape Town International Airport. This is an ideal training location as students are exposed to ATC from their very first lesson, and will not later be intimidated by complicated airspaces, or by the stress of slotting in between large aircraft. It is extremely exciting to watch a Jumbo landing 50 ft in front of you. Some students have even been seen waving to the tourists in the International terminal buildings as they taxi past.
