EASA Frozen ATPL With Lanseria Flight Centre, South Africa

Over the past 3 years LFC and their UK based partner Aviation Training Resources have been working to set up the EASA license training that commences in South Africa and concludes in Europe for the issue of an EASA frozen ATPL.

The following are the key advantages of following this route for an aspirant pilot.

  • A much lower cost than equivalent training providers
    in EASA which is additionally based fully in the EU
  • Year around good weather, with an average of 320 days
    per year of good flying weather. This helps with rapid completion of the
    training course. We have examples of students who have completed the full SA,
    CPL and Instrument Rating based element in around 9 months.
  • The flight and theoretical training syllabi for the
    South African licence closely mirror the EASA standard. Consequently, this is unlike that of the USA.
    The training is set up for the eventual EASA license conversion
  • Very easy Student Visa acquisition without all the
    strictures imposed by the USA for example.
  • Excellent advanced Simulators with accurate aircraft
    handling characteristics. 280° wrap around screens and visuals that realistically
    represent weather and even movement of traffic on the roads etc. Whereas, most other
    simulators, even type rating models do not have much more than 190° wrap around screens.
  • An approved Multi-Crew Cooperation courses is
    available. An optional Jet Orientation or Airline Preparation Course can be
    arranged in addition if required.
  • The EASA exam preparation is carried out seamlessly
    with our EU partner and lectures are provided by experienced ground instructors
    with supplemented video linked lectures for the mandatory element.
  • Excellent student self-catering accommodation which
    includes transport provide at a very attractive package price. Local shops
    provide all modern conveniences with very good produce at very economic prices.
  • The new Upset Recovery Training course is in place and meets and exceeds the
    EASA requirements.
  • A wide range of world class attractions are local to
    the facilities. Opportunities exist to visit Wildlife reserves and enjoy
    stunning African vistas in the course of the training. Visits by aircraft to
    Victoria Falls and the Okavango Delta are just couple of “training adventures” that can be included in the course.
