Established in 1928 at Wigram airfield, the Canterbury Aero Club has a long and proud history of providing flying lessons.  If you are interested in getting your private pilot licence you can learn to fly with the Canterbury AeroClub. The Club is now based at Christchurch International Airport and is New Zealand's largest Aero Club. The facilities we provide are world class and include our own private airfield at West Melton for the exclusive use of members. 80th Anniversary Photos from Claridge-Aviation Photography
