Aero clubs will play a smaller role, we have seen a large chunk either fall over, or go social only in the last decade, largely due financial, and staffing challenges. I see Rockhampton Aero Club has now axed the flight training part due to issues getting a HOFO, an issue that is widespread among smaller operators.

Not many left that offer full scale training departments. RVAC, Redcliffe, WA, PAC, NQAC. Some of those still offer the best training experience in my book, some of the best people I fly with to this day have all come from those clubs.
