IT'S A BIG WEEKEND AT PUA AND EVERYONE IS WELCOME!!

TONIGHT - PILOTS AT THE PUB
Join us at the Lowlands Bowling Club from 6pm for Pilots at the Pub — and help us celebrate a very special occasion. Our Deputy Head of Operations James Rose is turning 50 and we'll be marking the occasion in style. We tried to keep it a surprise. James is very active on the page. You know the rest. Pilots, aviation enthusiasts, friends and family — all welcome!!

TOMORROW - THE JACOBSON FLARE WORKSHOP & BBQ
Former Qantas Captain David Jacobson joins us at Cessnock Airport from 10am to present a workshop on his renowned Jacobson Flare landing technique. Whether you're a student pilot working on your circuits or an experienced pilot chasing better landings, this one is for you. Free to attend and followed by a FREE BBQ. Spaces still available — click on this post and send us a message to let us know you're coming!!

You don't have to be a pilot to come along to either event. You just have to want a good time among great people. We'd love to see you at both!!

CONGRATULATIONS JEREMY CARTER - COMMERCIAL PILOT LICENCE!!

Congratulations to Jeremy Carter on successfully achieving his Commercial Pilot Licence!!

Jeremy has been a familiar face at the flight school for a few years now. From his PPL Theory pass, through to his Private Pilot Licence conversion, his MPPC and Retractable Undercarriage endorsements, Jeremy has ticked off every milestone with real purpose and determination.

Over the past few months, Jeremy has been working hard with instructors Julia Freedman, Ben Byrnes and Matilda Mendham in preparation for his CPL flight test and the result is a fantastic reflection of the effort he has put in throughout his training.

From the very beginning Jeremy has had one goal in mind — a career in aerial application. With his CPL now in hand, that goal is well and truly within reach.

A fantastic achievement and well done Jeremy — we have no doubt the best is yet to come!!

Thinking about taking the next step in your aviation journey? Get in touch with the PUA team today!!

THE PRE-FLIGHT FUEL CHECK

Here's one we prepared earlier. Do you know what you're actually looking for when you take a fuel sample? Colour, smell, contamination and water all tell a story before you even start the engine.

ARE YOUR CONTROLS FULL, FREE & CORRECT?

A quick wobble of the controls before takeoff is not a flight control check. Here is how to do it properly and why it matters.
