Trike training close to Melbourne East?

[Guest [email protected].]

Greetings Trike community,

 

I am trying to locate a trike training / flying site accessible to Melbourne's Eastern suburbs... Any suggestions welcome. I am a GA pilot recently moved to Melbourne from O/S and keen to try Trikes.

 

Thanks!

 

Tim.

Hi Tim,

 

The RA AUS website should have a list of schools if you have no luck.

 

The link is Flight Schools.

Guys,

 

many thanks for these suggestions. I followed the links and it seems the nearest training centre for weight shift a/c is Point Cooke (not very close to where I live but doable occasionally). I also found a nearby club, Southern Microlight Club in Manningham, who may be my nearest source of information. Your advice is much appreciated. I'm quite surprised at how few trike training operations there are in Vic.

 

Fly safe,

 

Tim.
