I did my flight-training with Nelson Aviation College in Motueka because of a few reasons. Some being:

1. Good weather (I know of students in other parts of NZ who couldn’t / can’t fly for weeks at a time because of bad wx)
2. The ground school (Regarded as the best ground-school in NZ, some other flight-schools actually send their students there to complete their CPL-subjects.)

I guess every person would promote their own school anyway…

I did my CPL flight-test with Simon Spencer-Bower and learned heaps in just that short time. Truly amazing pilot. I would recommend flying with him whenever you get the opportunity.

Happy hunting…
