Gladstone Flying Training & Air Charter is a locally owned, CASA Part 141 Flight Training Organisation built on real experience and a genuine commitment to safe, capable pilots.
For more than 20 years, Gladstone Flying Training has helped people across Central Queensland turn the dream of flying into a licence — and a career. We're not a production line. Every student trains one-on-one with an experienced instructor who knows that good pilots are made through patience, repetition and respect for the aircraft.
From the very first lesson through to a Commercial Pilot Licence, the goal never changes: send you up safe, confident and properly prepared. Alongside our training, we run air charter and aviation logistics — putting decades of regional flying to work for businesses and communities that need to move by air.
Talk to us about training
A career aviator and CEO of Aviation Logistics and Training Pty Ltd, John holds an Air Transport Pilot Licence (Aeroplane) and a Commercial Pilot Licence (Helicopter), with over 20 years flying across fixed and rotary wing. That breadth — and the standards that come with it — is what every student trains under.
Three things never move, no matter who's in the seat or what we're flying.
The safety of our students comes before everything else. Nothing is rushed, nothing is skipped, and every flight is briefed and debriefed properly.
We hold the highest standards in training and education — because the licence you earn here has to stand up the day it matters most.
Every student is different. We tailor each program to your goals, your pace and your schedule — so the training fits your life, not the other way around.
Whether you're starting from scratch or working toward your commercial licence, we'd love to help you get there.
