Powered flight

Many pilots have found their way into flying at the FGZO and many of them have made a career as airline or military pilots. The first step is to obtain a private pilot's license. This consists of theoretical and practical training. The entire course can be completed at the FGZO under the guidance of the Swiss Pilot School Association with its own fleet of aircraft. Not only basic training, but also further training is possible thanks to the FGZO's versatile fleet of aircraft: for example, tailwheel instruction, glacier flying, night flying, instrument flying, instruction on various aircraft types or even training to become a professional pilot.

Gliding

Speck-Fehraltorf airfield is Zurich's closest gliding airfield. Beautifully situated, it is an ideal starting point for flights to the foothills and high Alps, the Central Plateau or southern Germany. We are about 30 active pilots of all ages. As a rather small group, we know each other and enjoy an uncomplicated, friendly atmosphere. Our aim is to have wonderful, often shared flying experiences. The most impressive flights are those we make at our flying camps in the Alps. We enjoy flying not only at weekends and during the week, but also at camps. In spring in Ticino, in summer in the Bernese Oberland, in the Jura and in the French Alps.
