Ello there
Im researching some hour building during 2009 whilst I travel and my route will take me through New Zealand to Fiji.
I was wondering if anyone could offer their experience and knowledge of flying clubs or schools that offer hour building hire?
I am a UK citizen with a JAA PPL (Aeroplanes) and I will be looking for about 20 hours hire in a C172 or a PA28 etc.
Kind regards!!

Both schools are ok, perhaps Pacific Flying School is a bit more organised than Advance Aviation so give them a call. No PA28's on the islands so you'll have to settle for the cessna. Give CAAFI (CAA Fiji http://www.caafi.org.fj/index.cfm ) a call also as you might have to fill out a few forms.
good luck!

Well, here's an update..... Most of PFS a/c are out of service due accidents, and there's a huge waiting list to get in. Probably have better luck now with AAT.
