Good flying schools in my area? (NSW, Australia)

[tekno17]

I live in Kiama, NSW, Australia, which is only a 15 minute drive from NSW AIR (Albion Park). I have already gone for a trial lesson, and loved every minute of it. I currently have a part time job which should allow me to fly about once a week. I searched these forums, and I found alot of people were talking negatively about NSW AIR. The posts are pretty old but are they still true? Would I be better off driving the 1:30 hours to Camden to learn at Curtis Aviation or Airborne Aviation? Does anyone have any experience with any of these flight training schools?

There is also quite a bit of a price difference for 1 hour flight intruction.
Airborne Aviation - 320
NSW AIR - 209
Curtis - 250

What is wrong with going down there and finding out for yourself? If you are genuinely interested it should not be a problem. Just because someone else tells you it is good/bad, does not make it so. It is up to you and the only opinion that matters is yours. Take a drive and visit both schools at Camden and you will have a much better idea.

Good luck and enjoy your flying wherever you decide to do it.
