Testimonials
My experience at Flight Training College in George from April to august 2024, where I completed my Commercial Pilot License, was nothing short of exceptional. FTC is one big family, and each person is treated accordingly. The staff and Instructors at FTC were not only professional, respectful and patient, but also incredibly kind and helpful. Their support and guidance made me feel confident and well-prepared every step of the way.
Each day at FTC was a new learning opportunity and I am grateful for the experience that helped me to grow both personally and professionally. What stood out to me the most was the dedication of the Instructors, who share their vast knowledge and experience with the students, with the student’s success and safety as their highest priority...
I want to express my deepest gratitude to everyone at FTC for going above and beyond in helping me achieve my commercial pilot's license. Your warmth and support made me feel incredibly welcomed, and I am truly grateful for the guidance and kindness from all the wonderful people involved. Thank you for being an integral part of this incredible journey. (Jan 2024)
I would love to say a huge thank you to each and every one of you, from Lara at the front door all the way to the Gentleman sweeping in the hangers. I felt that each and every one of you took interest in me and made me feel welcome. The professionalism I was shown was heart-warming and I am sad that I wasn't able to do more flying with you!
Out of my almost 200 hours, I can confidently say that this was, if not the best experience and flight of my journey!
I will most certainly be back to do my ME IR rating!
Hi FTC, Just a short note to say thanks to a great team !
I started my training with you, and have used you for my renewals ever since. My last trip, was a great experience. From booking my test - to completing it - was an absolute pleasure ! I was contacted before to say who was testing me, told to give a call an hour before (to get a weather check). When I arrived I was introduced to the instructor, Terrence, by liason officer (Luis, I think) - given a briefing on what we would be doing and told about the current CAA requirements. From the time I started doing my pre-flight to engine shut-down procedures I felt totally at ease and thoroughly enjoyed my test - leaving the field with confidence, Your admin staff took over, the paper-work was completed and I received my licence today (had to have it urgently by tomorrow to collect my plane in Bloem tomorrow).
