Explore the Possibilities of Aviation in Swindon: Find the Right Flying School for You

4worldlovers: Based in the Cotswolds, Freedom Aviation is the perfect place to learn to fly or continue your flying adventures if you already have a Private Pilot’s Licence.

Founded in 2006 by Sarah and Dave with one aircraft, Freedom Aviation has grown to a successful school and flying club with well-equipped Piper Warriors and American Champion Citabrias to meet all your training needs.

Our membership is growing every year as word gets around about our excellent instructional standards, great hour building trips, and friendly relaxed atmosphere.

Our base at Cotswold Airport operates a FISO service and has over 2,000 metres of hard runway, as well as a grass runway, which makes it a great place to build your flying experience. If you would prefer to explore places further afield, you can join one of our many annual flying adventures around the UK and Europe or embark on a tailor-made mentored hour building package with one of our experienced instructors.

During the PPL course you will progress from your first flight, to your first solo, to flying locally on your own. Once you have achieved your licence, the sky really is the limit.

Are you looking to expand your flying horizons? Our trips are relaxed, rewarding, and enjoyable, and will help you explore a variety of new places across the UK and Europe.

Our clear pricing structure tells you all you need to know. Hourly costs, course packages, ground school, and membership.

"It’s an amazing club, with superb aircraft, and great people, they have got it spot on."

"Best school/club ever! Very supportive and friendly people helping to get you in the air as easy as possible!”

"After 20 years of flying and experiencing a number of schools and clubs, I can honestly say they are the best.”

"Freedom Aviation has been the perfect solution for me … there is always an aircraft available to fly and they’re all maintained to an outstanding level.”

"An awesome school that feels much more like a very friendly club than a school …. I already feel like part of the family.”

"Freedom’s approach to ‘the British flying club’ is both refreshing and promising and should be welcomed with open arms in the industry."

4worldlovers: Established in 1990 we are a UK based Microlight, Gyrocopter and Light Aircraft training organisation operating throughout the year at Clench Common Airfield in Wiltshire. Located near Marlborough, just south of Swindon, we are ideally situated in central southern England with easy access from all directions.

At G.S Aviation our Civil Aviation Authority qualified Instructors and Examiners can take students from complete beginner to qualified pilot. All examinations and testing is done ‘in house’ using state of the art aircraft and equipment.

4worldlovers:
The VoWHGC is based at Sandhill Farm in the beautiful Vale of White Horse in Oxfordshire. Whether you are a complete beginner looking to start your journey in gliding, or simply want to experience the thrill of powerless flight or an experienced glider pilot, we can provide the perfect flying experience for you.

The club is run by volunteers which means our instructors and tug pilots give up their time for free enabling you the opportunity to fly at very reasonable rates.

Being a member offers a diverse array of benefits from learning to fly to simply meeting new friends and enjoying a very social day out at the club.
