Flight Camp
Sharp Airlines was established in 1990 to provide a high standard of Pilot Theory and Flying Training.
With many schools being just "pilot factories", we decided to establish a school that would not only train pilots but would also give new pilots the confidence and opportunity to use their licences. The Sharp Airlines Pilot Cadetship Scheme offers 12 months, hands-on flying, to Sharp Airlines' trained pilots. In addition, our regional location provides ideal flying conditions with no delays and traffic-free airspace. Melbourne, a little over one hour's flying time away, provides us with easy access to controlled airspace.
The Sharp Airlines' Flight Camp is an introduction to the world of aviation. This camp has been put together to enable students to experience as many facets of the industry as possible and to make an informed decision about their future careers. With four hours of flying during the week, lectures from many industry professionals and guided tours through airport facilities the Sharp Airlines Flight Camp is a great way to discover what aviation is all about.
