Really great flying school, had a great time during my PPL training.
Flew with both Sydney Aviators and Basair over the past few years. The instructors were all excellent, very friendly and helped me achieve my childhood dream of getting my commercial pilot licence.
I recently graduated with a diploma of aviation (commercial pilot licence) and would highly recommend the course. After looking around at a few different flying schools in the Bankstown area I found that Basair had the best facilities and widest range of aircraft. The course was structured well and all my instructors were great. Shortly after I finished I was offered a job flying in the NT.
Basair has put me into a spiral of depression and stress, wondering how they´re going to screw me over next. Instructors are immature (see: in jokes, sitting around on phones/idling on computers/memes posted on their desks) and talk about students behind their back. Theory classes are a 20 year old instructor reading off SharePoint slides. Do not go here. DO NOT GO HERE!
terrible ! CEO David doesnt care about the students only money, young instructors with so many with terrible attitudes. so many more bad experiences , old aircraft mechincal problems and everything. all they want is your money
Very unorganised college. Instructors are very childish and rude, they talk about students in a bad way, ive heard multiple times as Students are usually going in and out from instructor´s room for sign out. The company has a very bad saftey record with two crashes, one is very recent. Old planes, bad employee culture and bad company reputation. They took money from my vet fee that i didnt even use.
Basair leverage off vet-fee to double course prices and rope students in. Bunch of instructors are arrogant and blow smoke up their ass 24/7. Very unorganised and I struggled to get bookings and traction hence changing schools to complete my PPL
stay away ! only after your money , crap planes , mostly new young fresh instructors with low hours. have been there and i got nothing but messed around flew 4x times 5 months.
