Just wondering if anyone can advise of a school that has nice C172 for hire at YSBK (including navaids etc). Have'nt flown for 5 months, but looking to get current again without going through Basair and their clapped out aircraft!

You could try Clamback and Hennessy? I think they have the type of aircraft you are looking for! It might be a 182?

Proflite have brought in 2 from Queensland and another from Victoria. I haven't flown them, but they look clean (I haven't seen the one from Victoria).

Went through that search a while ago - Good luck!

I gave up on getting sense from basair, couldn't find anyone else with one. If you can tolerate a warrior, Pacific Flight Services (was Rod Crane I believe) can fix you up with a tidy one - VFC is a neat warrior 3 with GNS430 etc, at a reasonable price.

No association, other than having hired from them a few times now, and happy with what I got.

[looks like my info may be out of date then....]

Keep going down the M5 and find some nice restart models at Airborne.

SFTC have six brand new ones with G1000s. Might need deep pockets :ooh:

I looked for a good 172 at BK for a while and eventually settled on a 182
with Schofields. It seems to me 172RG with Aerospace was also on my list but
I didn't manage to try this option.

I know its not BK but Camden is much nicer to fly out of any way

Try

Aircraft Hire - Cessna, Piper, Beechcraft, de Havilland and more - Sydney, Australia (http://www.airborne-aviation.com.au/aircraft/)

They have 3 new Gen 172s and 4 182s which are imaculate
:ok:
