Welcome Gen-Y!
R U up 4 a Challenge?
Hey there - Thanks for stopping by!
This is a site set up to promote and bring awareness to Recreational Aviation in Australia to the younger Gen-Y. This is not the RA-Aus site.
You're Generation-Y if you were born after 1980...
...If you were born before 1980, you are more than welcome to browse this site and are more than welcome to take up the flying challenge, but we might suggest you check out this site HERE as well!
We know Gen-Y loves a good challenge - well, we have one for you!
Here lies the Challenge:
Learn to fly a Recreational Aircraft!! Yes, a plane!!!
Not just any old plane, but a new generation Recreational Aircraft.
There are plenty of Gen-X (1965 - 1979) and Baby Boomer's (1946 - early 60's) flying with RA-Aus, but not so many Gen-Y...we are out to change that!
Gen-Y, it's time to take up the challenge...
Think you've got what it takes? Then read on through this site to find out the how, why, where and the who of it all...have fun!
If you don't have what it takes to become a super cool pilot and fly safe, affordable, fast, new aircraft maybe you would preffer this site...
Please feel free to browse this site and ask us any question you might have about getting started with learning to fly
...come on, you know you want to :-)
If you are a person of Generation-Y and you are flying RA-Aus or you decide to, please email us your story/experience - We'd love to hear from you! If we publish your story we will give you a FREE copy of the awesome DVD One Six Right Valued at around $50au (Delivered)!
An excerpt from the movie One Six Right:
 



I am learning to fly at only 15 years of age - before I can even learn to drive a car! It is the best thing...and as  the hours from RA-Aus flying count toward my commercial licence, I am thinking of furthering my training to General Aviation later on and hopefully become a commercial pilot someday. RA-Aus makes it fun and affordable to get started! I can't wait until I fly the big jets, but for now, RA-Aus is pretty cool too.
I started flying at age 20 with General Aviation. I used to fly 20-30 year old aircraft, but since joining RA-Aus I fly brand new aircraft and it is heaps cheaper! I am currently flying the Jabiru J230D - it cruises at 120kt and even has an EFIS panel, really high tech. Best thing I ever did was get my RA-Aus Pilot Certificate! I love to take my mates up for a fly, they love it too
I love to surf - I get totally amped out there! Nothing better than the anticipation and then after heaps of ankle busters, catch the bitchin choka wave before I eat it and start it all again! I also love to fly, but I didn't thnk I had the smarts for it. Know what? I tried RA-Aus flying, loved it & passed all my tests & exams. I fly over the surf at 500 feet sometimes, usually when its too glassy for a surf, so cool!
