Information Needed As Drawing Dead Ends !!!
 

Hi Everyone,

I am off on holiday for a week before I embark on my CPL. I am off to the Canary Islands to Fuerteventuea does anyone know of any flying clubs on the Island so I can go have some fun !!!!

Cheers Neil

Not sure but you've got to do some windsurfing. Which part, sorry, end of the island are you going to?

Neil,

Where have you looked for information so far?

You could call these and ask:

Tenerife Flying Club / Los Rodeos Airport: Apdo. 28, 38297 La Laguna Tel: 922 63 81 20 Fax: 922 63 8118
El Berriel Flying Club: C/ Gral. del Sur, km. 46,5, San Bartolomé de Tirajana. 35107 Las Palmas de Gran Canaria
(from quick google search)

Hi all I have google flying clubs in Fuerteventura, also changed the wording to aero clubs, ppl hire , Aircraft hire with no luck Iam staying in Costa Caleta which is 15 mins from the airport

This doesn't bode well for a putative CPL...it demonstrates


Piss Poor Prior Planning.:= :}

Forget the flying. Just walk along the fabulous beach from Corralejo towards 'The Hotels' but wear your reflective sunglasses!!!!!!!. I visit twice a year. Lovely place.

What's your problem Cock Steve? :rolleyes:

He's finding out if it will be feasible to fly there before he goes away. That's called PLANNING!

Google is your friend - if you know how to use it ;)

Have a look at this, it's a starting point that should sort you out. Enjoy.

I'm with Cockney Steve. Certainly, the title of the thread doesn't assist matters.


Perhaps a better title would have been:

Not worth getting worked up about however. Have a good holiday Neil and good luck with your CPL :ok:

Perhaps the P*ss Poor Planning should be for going to an island that appears not to have any flying schools/clubs! Both Gran Canaria and Tenerife do, but so far nothing shows anything on Fuerteventuea. Google maps does show a GA area at the airport but until he gets there he may not be able to find out anything. That is why I suggested a phone call to the other islands may reap rewards,

Dont Despair neil, Drawing dead ends!

I have been getting these for the last 2 Years! :O

In all my visits over the years, I have seen virually NO G.A. activity. The island has nothing to offer private fliers, being a desolute lunar landscape, except for it's fabulous beaches.
