PMI flying clubs
 

Looking to go out to Palma in September and wouldnt mind going for a quick hour around the island. Does anyone know of any flying clubs on the island that can try out. Something like a C172 would be ideal.
Thanks

Hi SM
Not sure if they're called 'Palma Aeroclub', but anyhow they're situated at Son Bonet airport. Call them on +34 971 600 114, Francesca speaks good english. Couple of Pipers and a Cessna. Well maintained - owner is an engineer - clean, and prices are reasonable. Have fun!

Thanks for that doddlebug will give it a try ........any other suggestions?

I'll be on the same island Sep 10-15, and I'm also interested in flying there. So, if there's anything you find out...!

Well, now I'm a member of the Real Aero Club de Baleares at Son Bonet!

(But only for one more day, because a one-week-membership is the shortest they offer.)
I booked with Cesca under the aforementioned number and got checked out in their PA28-161 EC-FXS from Son Bonet airfield (LESB) by a very friendly English lady named Valerie, and then rented the aircraft for another hour. The condition of the a/c is okay but not great, as are the prices.
Here's a few pics of our trip:
