Scatlover,
I actually live 15 mins away from Cooly-on the NSW side though
I am already getting my flying training with Air Gold Coast, they are very good, and have a nice fleet and can train up to CPL Multi Instrument Standard.
They Dont have a website, so you'll have to ring for any queries.
Starting out for PPL training is about 200 bucks.
