Our Fleet

Bel Air flies and maintains its own fleet of aircraft. Most flight schools use lease back aircraft which aren't kept up to the standards that Bel Air places on keeping our aircraft in top shape. We take pride in our aircraft and have our own maintenance staff. See our Policies for information on rental etc.

Below you will find the types of aircraft in our fleet that we train with. You will also find general information about each type. Click on a plane's picture to get more details on that model.
