New Engine for our Tecnam.
We recently installed a new engine in our Tecnam training plane, with assistance from the City of Busselton through the Community Funding Program 2024/25.
This new engine will allow recreational flight training to continue at Busselton Margaret River Regional Airport through the Aero Club, providing an important recreational activity to the
Residents of Busselton and tourists to the area.
The Community Funding Program provided financial support to the project of replacing the old engine which was required under the Legislation for training aircraft, and the Club wishes
to acknowledge the support of the City of Busselton in this important project.
Training for Recreational Flying is available at all persons over the age of 14, and inquiries
and bookings can be made through the website; www.busseltonaeroclub.com.au or by
phoning the Chief Flight Instructor on 0466 711400.
