No, the aircraft choice will be as follows.
Diamond DA40 TDI x 5 (probably five)
Robin 2120T x 2
I've been flying one of the Cardiff Academy of Aviations Robins for the last few months. A very nice aeroplane and together with the other Robin will mean two aircraft that are less than two years old from the start of the business.
The Diamond DA40 TDI aircraft are a fantastic four seat touring aeroplane which can be put to use in a training role as well, there is at least one or two schools around the country that are putting them to use in this role.
Gary Jones and I were very impressed with the DA40 TDI that we have both test flown. I'm waiting for the call to go up to Gamston to test fly the Diamond DA42 Twinstar.
So to sum up, in future student pilots at Cardiff Academy of Aviation will be learning to fly on one of the newest aircraft fleets for a flying school in the country.
Best wishes,
Charlie Zulu.
