Durban Aviation Centre

There are many considerations; job satisfaction, remuneration, opportunities for personal growth and travel opportunities just to name a few. A career as a pilot certainly has the ingredients to tick all of these boxes. More than that flying is not just a job but rather a calling, a vocation, work that instils passion. There are those of us that consider flying as a career for the elite but this is not the case. The career suits people from all back grounds and both women and men. A sound grasp of mathematics, science and fluency in the English language as well as a reasonable level of fitness are important but you do not have to be a genius or an athlete to qualify. Importantly for newcomers to the industry the global aviation industry is expanding rapidly. The following quote comes from a study conducted by Boeing ‘the airline industry is on the brink of what's predicted to be the biggest surge in pilot hiring in history. Aircraft maker Boeing has forecast a need for 466,650 more commercial pilots by 2029’. The good news is that at Durban Aviation Centre you will find one of the finest flight training institutions in South Africa here on your doorstep at Virginia Airport. As the oldest training Institution in Durban we strive for excellence and high levels of professionalism in offering thoughtful and quality flight training.
