Key projects

What we're raising funds for:

 

PA28 fuselage-based flight simulator - which will allow disabled student pilots valuable time acclimatising and adapting to the aircraft physical environment, without the associated expense of actual flight. This can make a difference of many hours, and hundreds of pounds, for a physically challenged student PPL.

 

Brand new aeroplanes - with all the benefits of buying new, including much lower maintenance and running costs and warranty. We want to provide a really pleasant and confidence inspiring learning environment for our disabled student pilots - most of whom are much younger than any of our existing fleet, that is costing us more and more to maintain - particularly the avionics.

 

Salary for a Fund Raiser - every charity needs to build a reliable income to ensure its continued existence and to ensure the provision of safe good-quality services to those it supports. This is a real priority for us as we grow to meet demand, particularly as our current resources are overstretched. We need dedicated focus for our fundraising projects and activities.
