Skytrek Flying School Within Rochester City Airport
At Skytrek Rochester Airport, we are a family owned, local company that strive to provide affordable flying for everyone, whether you are a looking for a flight experience, a trial flying lesson for you, family or friends, to obtain your Private Pilots Licence or to improve your existing pilot skills with advanced training or self fly aircraft hire.

There is redevelopment work currently taking place on the airfield, so while the construction work is in progress the access road to the main car park is closed and the car park behind the microlight hangar is now being used.
Services
Skytrek offer affordable, professionally maintained aircraft for flight instruction and self fly rental, ensuring a safe and effective learning situation for our students while adhering to safe practice and all applicable regulations. We provide students with an excellent aircraft for flight training and an aircraft to fly upon successful completion of their training.
All our trial lesson and flight experience vouchers are valid for 6 months from date of purchase and include redeemable voucher, a signed certificate on completion of your unforgettable experience. If you choose a trial lesson, the time flown can be used towards obtaining your Private Pilots Licence if you choose to continue learning.
All aircraft are available to self fly hire customers and are maintained to the highest standards. You must have a valid rating and medical for the flight you wish to undertake and you will require a checkout flight if you have not flown with us in the preceding 28 days and must abide the school regulations.

Excellent, small, friendly flying club at Biggin Hill. They have a good fleet of Piper Warrior training aircraft which are, based on my recent experience, a very stable platform for those looking to get their private pilots licence.

14 and over. Wish I knew that when I was 14. Would have been flying since. Amazing you get hour lesson. You are flying for 50+ minutes. 1000 to 3000 feet. Out to folkestone follow M20 back up M2 cover most if Kent. But jumpy on way up and down but when steady at 3000 feet glorious.
Expensive hobby, but well worth the money.
Can spend more on a night out.

Rochester Airport has long been close to my family - Mum working at Rochester Aviation Flying Club, friend owning Millen Aviation and today it was our son’s first trial lesson. A 2 hour - we booked a Land Away… and wow what an experience!
Huge thanks to Stuart, David, Ewan, Kelvin, Brian, John & to all who reminisced and chatted to us whilst our son was flying! Amazing to have a new generation at Rochester!
Highly recommend the Skytrek Instructors and their colleagues for a super experience both in the air and on the ground.

Brought a trial lesson for my partners xmas present and we managed to fly today, such an amazing experience and thanks to Stuart the flying instructor who was so lovely Taking us over to see our house and… taught us a lot in one lesson about the plane and flying. So professional and friendly we would definitely recommend even just for the experience. What a wonderful memory to add to our many experiences. 😊

I bought a trial lesson for my wife’s birthday last year, but due to circumstances we were unable to book until this year. Last weekend saw us visit Skytrek and from the time we walked through the door we were made to feel welcome. The staff are fantastic. Esther was to be Kelly’s instructor and briefed us on the principles of the control surfaces of the aircraft. Then off we went fir a flight to Ltd airport and back... that was until I went to get in the back seats and came over with claustrophobic feelings. Totally gutted that I couldn’t go I decided safety was the most important factor

Constantly messesd about during my PPL training, myself and instructor kicked out of the classroom on numerous occasions due to internal squabbles between staff. My instructor eventually quit half way through my training and consequently having had enough of being messed about I moved to another school.
Years later after passing my PPL I… returned to complete an aerobatics course. The instructor Clive was great! However this was also cut short after the operations manager made up completely false allegations of me misusing aircraft - aparently observed on social media footage, however none
