All students at all bases visit at least one different base during their training. All students visit Spain during winter to benefit from the stable weather conditions. Spain offers terrain, and Scandinavia lots of rain. The fact that our students fly out of different bases makes our education so much better than if we flew out of one base only, because in the process of facing different challenges, our students get intensified learning.
GreyBird Pilot Academy’s Bases
GreyBird Pilot Academy encompasses various locations, including home bases, flying bases, theoretical bases, and some that serve more purposes. Students are assigned a home base, which is always equipped with amenities provided by GreyBird, including common rooms and classrooms. Here, students can either work independently or in groups. Courses in subjects like management, mathematics, and other areas supplementary to pilot education are readily available at these sites.
A student’s education is anchored at their home base. If a student needs to relocate temporarily to another base for flying, simulator training, or specific subject instruction, GreyBird schedules the travel. This includes arranging tickets and accommodation at the temporary location as part of the integrated course price. As a result, the cost remains consistent for the student, whether they are flying in Denmark or Spain, allowing GreyBird to optimize student placement for efficiency and effectiveness. For example, most students will fly out of Spain during the winter and out of Denmark during the summer.
The Different Bases:
Denmark, Aarhus: GreyBird Headquarters, Home Base, Theory Base, Flying Base, and Simulator Bays.
Denmark, Copenhagen: Home Base and Theory Base.
Sweden, Stockholm: Home Base.
Spain, Cordoba: Flying Base.
In Spain, Cordoba – the base has ideal weather conditions for winter training. Cordoba is a beautiful historical city with a nice modern airport and ideal training conditions.
At GreyBird, we offer the possibility of studying theory in Copenhagen and Stockholm. In Copenhagen, we start up new classes in August, and in Stockholm two times per year.
