Warnervale Airstrip

What is Warnervale like these days?  Is it good for doing the biannual flight review for a private pilot licence?

I should think so. 

The school has seen a bit of a renaissance over the past few years and I understand is quite popular.  In particular the long term threat of airport closure has now gone, and the local council (albeit under administration) is supportive, which has given the school some much needed breathing space.

I understand their fleet is still quite old (as expected) but well maintained.  They have recently added a C150 with a 150hp engine.  Now that should really fly !

I trained there many years ago and don't have any recent involvement, but do keep a bit of a 'watching brief' on the happenings.  I also don't have any recent experience with their instructors but did fly with their current CFI (and current CEO) many years ago, and he was excellent.

 

Just did my GA BFR last week at Camden.
