    I’m a private pilot based in the US and it was incredibly easy to book a tourist flight. The fleet of Sling aircraft are well-maintained and the flight staff and instructors are super nice and attentive. Chris was an amazing and took me all over for our hour flight. 10/10 would recommend for pilots visiting the area. Great 2-4-1 deal with the Queensland aviation museum across the street. Thank you!! I will be back when visiting the area in the future.

    The instructors at GoFly are highly experienced, knowledgeable and super friendly. I started with a 45 minute trial flight at the end of last year and it was a flight i'll never forget. The instructor Jack provided a flight with beautiful views, shared a lot of facts and knowledge about the area and the aircraft and had me hooked. I now do my flight training at Gofly and i am confident in saying it is an incredible experience surrounded by incredible people. Everyone at GoFly are Very professional are happy to share their knowledge. Reception also provides great customer service. I've flown with Jack and Chris, They're both fantastic instructors; very knowledgeable, patient and passionate about teaching flying. GoFly makes all their students feel appreciated and often praises all achievements and special moments throughout their training. You really get to know the instructors and make great friends along the way. The aircraft are modern, safe, clean and well maintained, they're a joy to fly. I can't recommend Gofly highly enough for RAAus flight training.

    I chose GoFly for my RPC training, and am very glad I did. The Sling aircraft are very modern in comparison to aircraft used by other schools, and are maintained very well by AMS next door. The online videos are a perfect aid to training, allowing to you to revise and prepare for your next flight, saving time, and more importantly, money. It’s also very easy to make and cancel bookings through the online booking system. Lastly, a special shoutout to my witty and wonderful instructor Dan, who really does strive for the success of his students. He’s a fantastic pilot and instructor who is always up for a “laff”, and was someone I could talk to throughout all my training. It is through all these reasons that I would not hesitate to recommend GoFly to anyone looking to learn to fly.

    Great experience and much easier when explained how each control worked. The plane was very easy to fly even when we hit turbulence. We were flying in mixed weather which was awesome
