Cato Ridge Aviation Centre

Cato Ridge Aviation Centre offers flying lessons in great, all-year round, weather conditions. Costs depend on which aircraft you choose for training, and how often you fly. There are no landing and approach fees at Emoyeni airfield. The ideal weather conditions and friendly instructors will make the experience one to remember and we look forward to welcoming you to our sunny skies.

Our facilities include: Flying school office, private lecture room, examination room. A lounge to relax in after a 'hard' day's flying!
Viewing point - to sit and watch all the activity in the skies above and the action on the runways. Swimming pool - a great place to cool off after lectures, and the Emoyeni restaurant and bar - a great place to relax and enjoy lunch and some live music on a Sunday. Also used for "hanger talk" with other pilots and instructors.

We like to explore other airfields around South Africa, and we invite trainees to join one of our "Flyaway" trips for coffee and/or breakfast. Hitch a ride with one of the qualified pilots on a flying visit to the Drakensburg, North Coast, South Coast while you are still training and get "air experience" (it all helps!). Emoyeni Aviation Park offers accommodation in double-bed chalets if you decide to stay over.

Book your introductory flight with us today to start your career in aviation or simply if you have a passion for flying and would like to pursue it as a hobby!
