About Us

 
   
Palmerston North International Airport
   
   

 

Being barely 5 minutes drive from the central city, or a two hours drive north of Wellington. Palmerston North is a very interesting place to learn. Amongst other things, you will gain the confidence to slot yourself safely in between airline traffic such as ATR72 turboprop and Jetstream 41 aircraft. We look at Palmerston North as an excellent training environment. Once you have mastered the art of flying here you will have little difficulty flying into most airfields in the country. Palmerston North Airport has a 1900m sealed runway and 600m grass runway and is equipped with several instrument approach aids.
