About Us

Sherburn Aero Club is the largest flying club in the North, and one of largest in the country. With our own flying school, a large fleet of aircraft, and our low prices we make sure our members get the very best in affordable flying.
But that's not all.
gardenBecause we are a flying club, and not just a school, we cater for our members, and their families, after they become a fully qualified pilot. At Sherburn Aero Club we have an excellent cafe and bar, wireless Internet, a variety of self hire aeroplanes, and even our own local flying guidebook. We are determined to help our pilots to continue to fly, building on their experience and expanding their horizons.
Give us a ring - or visit us - and try some affordable flying.
events logoFor our flying and social members the club works hard to put on a wide variety of events throughout the year. Download a copy of the New Year 2012  events newsletter or visit the events pages.
