Overview
Learning to fly in formation is fun, challenging and rewarding. It is a skill that once learned you can share with your aviation friends amongst other flying activities. 

Even if you don’t have intentions of regularly flying in formation with other pilots, this training will improve your overall general flying skills. It requires fine and accurate control of the aircraft while maintaining good communication with your formation partner(s) in high workload scenarios. Along with these advanced flying skills, formation flying will teach you the art of preparing for a flight and considering environmental factors and influences that you may not have considered in the past. Most importantly it teaches you how to evaluate and critique your flying with a structured, disciplined approach. 

Formation flying isn’t something that we just do on the side. Our instructors also fly formation aerobatic joy flights with Max Aviation so it’s safe to say you’ll be in good hands. 

Our formation training syllabus has been developed using the same techniques that military pilots use for their formation training and will ensure that you are competent to a standard well above the RA-Aus Operations Manual and CASA Part 61 requirements.
