Ikarus C42 G-CGWK and G-CGNI Another new C42 is due for delivery in June making three! GS Aviation are now using the Ikarus C42 as their primary training aircraft with brand new aircraft being delivered in April 2011 and July 2010. This aircraft type has been chosen as it is a high wing aircraft and the cockpit has easy access for students. It has forgiving handling characteristics, ideal for the low hours Pilot, along with a comfortable cabin including heating. The gas shock absorbers make for a strong durable undercarriage and, with disc brakes and flaps, the short field capability is second to none. A comfortable and economic cruise of 70 knots (80mph) allows both students and qualified pilots to go places at a fuel burn of 12 litres an hour on the Rotax 912 80hp engine. Again available for pupils during training on an hourly basis and also for shared ownership. More C42 Information. Training costs in UK

Pegasus QuickR G-CGWZ Registered 2011 this was, at the time, the very latest Pegasus flex wing aircraft replacing the previous GT-450 G-CERN. From May 2012 this aircraft is being used mainly for share holders to allow more cross country flying. Panniers are available and occasional overnight stay aways including trips to France will be allowed. It will also be available as a back up to the GTR if that is unavailable. This has continued our line of Pegasus aircraft replacing the GT-450. Our school flexwings have made several expeditions to France carrying two people and luggage. |

 | TeamEurostar G-CFRT Joined our training fleet 19 February 2009. 2-seater side by side with cabin heat. Fitted with twin sticks and toe brakes this is a much more like a "proper" GA type aircraft. The clean aerodynamics combined with the 80hp Rotax engine result in a fast but economical aircraft. It cruises at 85 - 100 mph effortlessly yet is still happy in the circuit at 65mph. Max level speed is 125 mph. It will not only be available for trial flights, ab-initio students and full NPPL(m) training on an hourly bases but also in shares for training and qualified pilots. The share purchase cost of only £3115 which can be paid by credit card or as 3 monthly payments of £1075 paid by cheque. More Eurostar Information. Training costs in UK |

MT-03 gyrocopter G-CFGY The MT-03 gyrocopter joined us new in Mid 2008 and started training flights in 2011. It is an amazing machine, quite unlike any other type of aircraft.

A bit about the Rotax 912
The Rotax 912 engine used on all of our fleet has proved itself to be both reliable and economic since its inception over 16 years ago, with liquid cooled cylinder heads there is no shock cooling of the heads as in conventional aviation engines. The old carb heat system is negated, as the Rotax does not suffer from carb icing due to the carbs being positioned at the back of the engine in warm air from the cylinders. A modern aviation engine which is a real winner, mated to good solid modern training aircraft, what a combination!!
