Lone Eagle Flying School caters for everyone wanting the challenge of learning to fly or just to enjoy an air experience flight over the Darling Downs.

CASA have now introduced RPL(Recognition of Prior Learning) from RA-AUS to GA flying, with this introduction you can start you're training with us and save yourself thousands of dollars. To gain a pilot certificate with RA-AUS it is around $6,000 and with GA around $13,000. This saving is just the beginning, we have had scholarship students from our school now flying commercially for work and even first Officers with Virgin Australia. Many of our club members have also converted over to become GA pilots, our CFI has over 50yrs of flying experience so the training is of first class.
