CFA is conveniently located at Rand Airport, which has 2 runways, and a manned ATC. This reduces delays in training due to cross wind conditions and exposes you to good radio etiquette and communication procedures. Our fleet of 8 Cessna 172’s, 1 Cessna 172 RG complex trainer and Piper Twin Commanche are all owned and maintained by Central Flying Academy and our approved AMO is based at Rand Airport.

Safety and good Airmanship are cornerstones of our Academy and we strive to ensure that this ethos is carried with you as you progress in your aviation adventure.

You’ll become part of an elite circle of more than 650 000 other proud aeronauts. You’ll learn your Alpha Bravo Charlies. You’ll strap in. You’ll take the controls. You’ll impress even yourself!

In the air and on the ground, we provide the highest level of the learn-to-fly experience. We understand pilots and what it takes to be a pilot, like no one else. Period.

Throughout history, more people have learned to fly in a Cessna than any other aircraft. Cessna have been building aircraft for over 80 years, and for the past 37 years.
