flying at Archerfield
I visit YBAF on a regular basis and from what I have seen the Airline Academy seems to be doing a lot of flying with lots of students at their facility. They had very good press recently in an Asian Aviation edition and from their website seem to be the only Qantas approved school in Queensland.
Mins is right the Academy has great facilities and a good fleet of 172R. FTA also seems to be doing a reasonable amount of flying as is RQ. In the circuit it seems to be a mix of AAA/FTA and RQ aircraft all the time.
At the end of the day you need to go look for yourself and ask questions.
