The Hanseatischer Fliegerclub Hamburg e.V. is a well-established flying club located at Hamburg-Fuhlsbüttel International Airport (EDDH). It provides a strong community for aviation enthusiasts and student pilots, focusing on private pilot training with highly experienced instructors, including professional pilots and air traffic controllers. The club emphasizes safety, cost-effective flying, and personalized mentorship throughout training.
The club's fleet includes proven, economical training aircraft, spacious and faster travel aircraft for longer trips, and some equipped for instrument flight rules (IFR). Members benefit from comprehensive infrastructure including a clubhouse, internet-enabled flight preparation rooms, and excellent access to European destinations.
Training programs cover theoretical and practical instruction for the Private Pilot License (PPL-A) and Night Visual Flight Rules (NVFR). The club is officially approved by Hamburg aviation authority. It operates as a club promoting flying as a shared passion rather than a commercial flight school.
Membership involves active community engagement at one of Germany's largest flying clubs, with a history of over 600 private pilot licenses granted and more than 23,500 flight hours recorded in training. The club hosts social events and flying camps to enhance pilot experience and camaraderie.
