Auckland, NZ
Hope this is the right place to ask. I am contemplating emigrating to Auckland (non aviation job) and was looking for some background on private flying and gliding in the area.
Grateful for any info, recommendations etc. THanks g45 |

Best Flying Clubs
Heya G,
There are a few airfields around Auckland, and even more Flying Clubs. From your post, I'm guessing that you are a Recreational Pilot, and will be looking for a club with good atmosphere, convenient, excellent instructors, and value for money. I can recommend taking a weekend and visiting the places around, that way you get to talk shop with the punters. I fly at Ardmore, from Airline Flying Club. It is open to anyone, and concentrates mainly on the recreational market. Open during the weekend, or weekdays by arrangement. Phone them on +64 9 2984747, or e-mail [email protected] ECT |
Good plug dude!! Don't forget the excellent coffee available (if you're quick enough) every Saturday and Sunday.

Ardmore is a good airfield to fly out of.
Be sure to keep a good lookout out in the circuit though, plenty of massey clones to fly into. ;) |
