It was started by Adam Starr, a CASA certified flight examiner who has trained and tested people since 1988 in the Army, paramedicine, TAFE, university, air traffic control and flight instruction.

Cirrus training

The company's website lists Cirrus factory certified training among its services. Adam Starr is described as a Cirrus Standardised Instructor Pilot certified by the Cirrus factory, the first Platinum CSIP in Australia, with more than ten years as a Platinum CSIP and over 4,000 hours instructing on Cirrus aircraft, plus experience flying the Vision Jet (SF50). The site's articles section includes a Cirrus SR22 G6 pilot operating handbook, a Cirrus parachute guide, a Cirrus workbook and notes on Garmin logic and IFR techniques in glass cockpits, used as study material for its instruction. Pricing is by enquiry. Flight tests and checks can be arranged for pilots from other schools, since the company is independent of any one flying school.
