Testimonials

Student comments

My experience with Airwin Portugal Flight Academy is something I highly recommend. It allowed me to do the PPL(A) continuously, facilitating a better retention of knowledge and skills inherent to flying
O aeródromo de Castelo Branco oferece óptimas condições para um aluno piloto, uma vez que está localizado numa região onde a meteorologia favorece o voo VFR. O reduzido tráfego na região é também vantajoso na fase inicial, ajudando o aluno piloto a concentrar-se na técnica de voo que conduz a uma aprendizagem rápida, por exemplo, passando mais tempo com o motor no ar em vez de taxiar a aeronave, bem como fazendo mais circuitos e touch-and-go's.
A excelência de formação da Airwin na sua base em Castelo Branco, aliada à disponibilidade e liberdade de horários que é permitida, foram as chaves para a minha conclusão bem sucedida do curso PPL.
With state-of-the-art aircraft, demanding and highly qualified instructors and an excellent location at the Castelo Branco airfield, I was able to safely practice all flight scenarios. Any future pilot will be more than prepared for any challenges that may come their way in the future.
