Flying Lessons in Cairo by Stephen-Jones
Hi, I've recently moved to Cairo from the UK and will be here for about 6 years, work permitting. I'm a fully qualified flying instructor, which I worked as part time at weekends before coming to Egypt. I am now looking into the ...
Hi, I'm afraid I have given up on trying to continue my flying, whilst in Egypt. Firstly I've found it just about impossible, for bureaucratic reasons, as well as the fact that I am now far too busy with my day job to have any spare time at ... Read More

After extensive searching and even after looking into flying my own aircraft out to Egypt, I'm afraid I've hit a stone wall and discovered that it is just too difficult to undertake training, or any form of private flying here in Egypt. ... Read More

Hi, I'm afraid this is proving to be a non starter. The only schools I've found are centred around providing training to CPL and ATPL level. There appears to be extremely limited GA activity in Egypt. The only private flying I found out ... Read More

I would like to think so, but I suspect it will depend on how the school is registered. Under local Egyptian rules and regulations or to EASA standards. In the US for example you can qualify as a PPL to FAA standards or EASA standards. Read More

The school I contacted was the aviation academy. Their main focus is to the ATPL but they also provide PPL as all new students have to obtain their PPL as the first step towards the full commercial licence. Read More

Hi Everyone, well I got to speak with the flight school in 6th October and there is a possibility of me getting work as an instructor teaching the PPL (Private Pilots Licence). The only problem is they do not operate at weekends. I can only teach at ... Read More

Thanks for getting in touch. I'm presently collecting a list of interested potential students that I can take to the school to see if they will take me on. It might take a while due to typical security issues, but bare with me. I'll keep ... Read More
