Edinburgh Flying Club

Edinburgh Flying Club operates three aircraft. One is normally used for training, and two for trial flights. However a Club member may fly any of the aeroplanes provided they have been authorised to do so by an instructor.

The Piper Warrior (PA28), registered G-BPFH is a four seater and is our main training aircraft. This aircraft was designed as a tourer but is used extensively as a trainer throughout the world. This aircraft has a cruising speed of approximately 95kts.

 

The Piper Archer (PA28), registered G-BNGT, is also a four seat aeroplane. Similar to the Piper Warrior, this aeroplane is very well equipped with GPS and autopilot. It has a cruising speed of approximately 100 kts which makes it suited for longer flights such as touring Europe.

 

The Cessna 172, registered G-BMCI is also a four seat aeroplane. Being a 'high wing' aeroplane it provides the rear passengers with an excellent view of the ground, and this makes it ideal for Trial Flights.
