Welcome to Sarasota Aero Club

World Class Flight Training

 

When people think of Sarasota, FL, they think of World Class.  That is exactly what you will find at Sarasota Aero Club.  Here, we make it our top priorities to offer the best flying lessons, with the best aircraft, and all at the best prices in the Sarasota / Tampa Bay area.  Our membership is made up of student and private pilots from the local area including North Port, Port Charlotte, Punta Gorda, Venice, Sarasota, Bradenton, and Tampa.

 

All of our aircraft are hangered at the Venice Municipal airport on Venice Island.  Flying from the Venice airport gives us the ability to train in a highly convenient environment without large commercial jet traffic or intensive radio communication, and when necessary, easily make the short hop over to Sarasota International Airport or Punta Gorda to give our members the opportunity to also train in a high traffic environment.
