Thank you for choosing to fly with Trim Flying Club. You are in great hands, so please sit back, enjoy the ride and prepare yourself for the thrill of a lifetime. These are exciting times at Trim Flying Club, we have been training pilots for 30 years in Ireland to obtain their Private Pilots License (PPL) on single engine Cessna 172 fixed wing aircraft.
Learning to fly and getting a pilot’s license is interesting, challenging and very rewarding. Like obtaining a driver’s license, you will need to obtain instruction, pass some written tests, and then pass a final flight test in an aircraft with a qualified flight examiner.
Learning to fly and controlling an aircraft in the sky demands a new set of personal skills which a person must master. Everyone will remember their first flight and air experience which may lead to joining a flying club like Trim Flying Club to obtain their Private Pilots License (PPL).

PPL Course - Learning to Fly
The PPL (Private Pilots Licence) is a comprehensive flight training course designed to bring you from ab initio to a fully qualified Private Pilot.
Initially when you begin your training and before you go solo, you will need to apply for your student pilots license, for this you will complete an Aviation Class 2 Medical issued by an authorized medical examiner to make sure you are safe to fly. On completion of your Medical, receiving your students license and having clocked up around 10-15 hours basic appreciation of flying, you will be sent solo by your instructor. The first time you are sent solo is when you are well on your way to becoming a fully qualified pilot.
Trim Flying Club are now open for new members to join up. Not sure of full membership? Why not take an Introductory Flight to experience the thrill of flying.
The Club would like to remind PPL members that the use of the Training Aircraft EI-STT at the weekends (Saturday & Sunday) is strictly limited to use by student members unless previously arranged with the instructor assigned to the weekend or with a student member in advance that may already have it booked.
