Brief description Aeroclub Saarlouis E.v.
Aeroclub Saarlouis e.V. is a nonprofit flying club located at the Saarlouis-Düren airfield (EDRJ) in Germany, dedicated to promoting affordable flying and pilot training. Established in 1978, the club operates the Aquila A210, a highly regarded two-seat very light aircraft known for precise handling, economical operation, and excellent instrumentation.
The club offers pilot training for Private Pilot License (PPL) and Light Aircraft Pilot License (LAPL), with possibilities to use ultralight flight hours to reduce training costs. The Aquila A210, powered by a Rotax 912 S engine, cruises at about 110 knots and has a range of approximately 1000 km, making it ideal for club use.
Unique to this club is the option to substitute ultralight flight hours for PPL or LAPL training hours, potentially lowering costs for student pilots. The club emphasizes a community spirit with no mandatory work hours, providing a practical and accessible approach to flying education.
Overall, Aeroclub Saarlouis e.V. offers a solid foundation for future pilots aiming to fly within Germany and the European Union, with a well-maintained fleet and experienced instructors.
