Our Aircraft

Flight Training Perth operates a well maintained fleet of modern aircraft from our Jandakot Airport base.
Aircraft are available for private hire and flight instruction.

CESSNA 152

The Cessna 150/152 is one of the most popular training aircraft of all time with more than 7500 of the little two-seater rolling off the production line. Developed by Cessna to fill the basic trainer role, tens of thousands of pilots have started their flight journey on the C152.

Manufactured in the United States the 152 is constructed from lightweight aluminium alloy and equipped with a durable 110hp Lycoming engine making it economical to operate without compromising on performance.

A docile but robust aircraft it’s the perfect machine for initial flying training and the aircraft we use for Recreational Pilot Licence Training and Trial Instructional Flights.

CESSNA 172R

The Cessna 172 Skyhawk is a popular aircraft with over 44,000 produced worldwide since it was introduced in 1955, and they are still in production today.

The 172R variant was first produced in 1996 and featured a number of design improvements including a factory-fitted fuel-injected engine.

This high-wing four-seater is primarily used for flight training, private aviation and scenic flights. It features excellent stability and modern avionics which provides a safe and comfortable flying experience for beginners and experienced flyers alike.

GROB 115 C2

Our primary aircraft for PPL and CPL training is the Grob G115C2. Versions of the Grob 115 are used extensively to train pilots for the Royal Airforce and the Finnish Airforce.

The Grob 115 features a robust modern airframe made up of carbon composite materials and is equipped with a constant speed propeller.

Due to its constant speed propeller all students graduating from courses taught on the Grob 115 automatically gain a Manual Propeller Pitch Control (MPPC) endorsement in addition to their aircraft class rating.

CESSNA 172RG

The Cessna 172RG variant, also known as the Cutlass, features a retractable landing gear that distinguishes it from the Cessna 172 Skyhawk.

It features a variable pitch propeller, a reliable 180 hp Lycoming O-360 engine and enjoys a cruising speed of around 125 knots. It also has larger fuel capacity than the fixed-gear 172 providing longer endurance.

This aircraft offers a good step up for pilots working their way toward larger aircraft. The Cutlass meets the ‘complex aircraft’ requirements making it ideal for instrument rating and commercial pilot training.

BEECHCRAFT C55 BARON

The Beechcraft C55 Baron is a twin-engine piston aircraft which can carry up to 5 passengers. It offers solid handling and a reliable and comfortable flying experience, often described as ‘a joy to fly’. The popular Barons are still in production today!

The aircraft features a fully retractable landing gear for those completing their retractable undercarriage endorsement, and it is also popular for IFR training.

CESSNA T210

The Cessna T210 is a high-performance single-engine aircraft with a retractable gear.

This high-wing turbocharged model features six seats and excellent cruising performance, making it a highly popular choice for charter aircraft.

Known for its stability in handling, this is a sought after aircraft for those seeking their first commercial job – it is the most likely type to be flown by commercial charter companies.

MOONEY M20J

The Mooney M20J (also known as the Mooney 201 thanks to its top speed of 201 mph) is a low-wing, four-seat propeller aircraft that is utilised for more advanced training.

The ‘M20’ series – fast, single engines with retractable undercarriage – were the most successful design from Mooney with the M20J debuting in 1977.
(an older model M20E serves as the memorial to ‘The Sugar Bird Lady’ near Jandakot Airport!)

Considered a complex aircraft, the M20J enjoys a cruise speed of 150 knots and is a great aircraft for advanced skills training.
