Flight Standards (Archerfield) is big enough to provide everything a pilot seeks in a training organisation, but small enough that the individual comes first – no large course numbers with rigid schedules & “intake dates” here!
Flight Standards (Archerfield) provides the full range of flight training services – from the very first lesson right through until the Commercial Pilot Licence flight test or Instrument Rating. The team at Archerfield boasts a wide range of experience, regularly delivering tailored courses to suit any need – Flight Instructor Ratings are common.
Archerfield Facilities, Staff & Aircraft
The Archerfield base is located in prime position on Archerfield Airport next door to the main terminal building. It features several briefing rooms, two classrooms, synthetic trainer & hangar. The comfortable reception / lounge area also hosts the pilot supply shop.
Consistent with our focus on industry-relevant training, we operate our own Beechcraft C55 Baron for multi-engine & Instrument Rating training. The single-engine fleet includes several Cessna 172 aircraft, including a 172RG for CPL training / private hire. Cirrus SR-20 & C152 Aerobat types are also available.
Courses available
Most of the training at Archerfield is for the Recreational, Private & Commercial Pilot licences. The Archerfield team is also well regarded in the region for Flight Instructor Rating training & more recently, the addition of our own Baron has seen increased interest in Multi-Engine Class & Instrument Ratings.
Like all our locations, any training can be offered in a client’s aircraft if desired.
We like to think that Archerfield is a great place for our Commercial trainees to start, before moving on to the Northern Territory for completion of the licence & possible commencement in the industry.
Other services
The Archerfield base maintains a well-stocked pilot supply shop, open every day.
