Question. Sydney Flying School Bankstown

[Judd]

Does anyone recall an operator based in Bankstown around 2009 called Sydney Flying School? I understand it later folded. What was the problem and when did it happen?

There was a Sydney Airways, the owner, Brian Wetless retired.

another was the Sydney Aerobatic School now trading as Red Baron.

there is also Sydney Jabiru fying school

there was a SFTS, Sydney flight training school, since gone bust, that all i can think off off the top of my head without thinking to much

Yes - that's the one I was thinking of. What aircraft did they operate and why did they go under?

if its the same one i remember a flying instructor at bankstown telling me it was because all the indian students put a class action law suit together as none of them were passing the exams or something along those lines. cant confirm the legitimacy of this though
