An established flying group at Shobdon

G-ATON has been based at Shobdon since 1984. Today, Stirling Flying Syndicate brings together around 12 members from many walks of life, including professional pilots, to share the ownership and use of our Piper Cherokee. The group combines a long-standing presence at the airfield with the practical benefits of sharing the cost and responsibility of aircraft ownership.

Our annual flying totals around 140 hours, so aircraft availability is very good. Two members are flight instructors, making coaching and check flights for licensed pilots straightforward to arrange. Whether you are building experience or have been flying for years, there is a range of knowledge within the group to draw on.

From Shobdon to Aberystwyth and back

“Eventually, almost at the last moment, Aberystwyth appeared. I made a few orbits overhead, looking up and down the coast. The mountains of North Wales were easy to pick out in the distance.”
