OUR FLIGHT TRAINING EXPERIENCE
White Star Aviation is dedicated to delivering the highest standard of training within a welcoming and inclusive environment. We understand and appreciate the uniqueness of each student, so we take the time to provide personalized support based on their individual motivations and abilities.
Our primary objective is to nurture industry-ready pilots who possess practicality, rationality, intelligence, logic, and a keen sense of responsibility. Our experienced and devoted staff ensure that the training environment and course delivery not only meet but exceed student expectations, contributing to the growing demand for exceptional pilots worldwide.
OUR LOCATION
Discover our two cutting-edge facilities nestled in the breathtaking landscapes of New South Wales. The first, Ballina Airport, is situated in the enchanting Northern Rivers region, while the second, Armidale Regional Airport, lies in the captivating Northern Tablelands. These picturesque locations provide the perfect environment for you to pursue your dreams and take flight.
With our clean and modern facilities, getting here is a breeze, as we are easily accessible with multiple domestic flights servicing both locations daily. What sets our bases apart is their placement in Class ‘G’ airspace, which translates to less time spent at holding points and shorter routes to the training area. Above all, this creates a safer and low-traffic environment, ideal for those starting their flying journey.
Furthermore, our strategic proximity to controlled aerodromes offering ILS and VOR approaches ensures efficient completion of instrument ratings, with all necessary navigation aids within a short flight. Embrace the opportunity to spread your wings and soar towards success in these remarkable settings
OUR PILOT MENTORING
White Star Aviation boasts a network of airline captains from Australia’s mainline carriers who are ready to advise, train and mentor you throughout both your training and into your chosen aviation career path.
OUR DIVERSITY OF TRAINING
The CKAS MotionSim1 boasts high fidelity motion and realistic visuals making it the perfect platform to provide initial flight training saving hours in the aircraft and reducing the over-all costs of training.
Students will complete 1 hour of Basic Instrument Flight in the CKAS MotionSim1 during their PPL training and another 4 hours of basic instrument flight and VOR orientation, tracking and intercepts during their CPL flight training.
The MotionSim1’s advanced features really shine during the Instrument Rating program in which 25 hours are completed in the device.
