Hiring from Seawing - What we can offer

Southend airport - a1600 metre runway with ATIS, approach and tower services. With an elevation of 48 feet the airport is often open when others are closed. The airport has full safety facilities and features NDB, ILS and radar. Fuel costs are reasonable as are landing fees (£12.75 per full stop, £6.75 per touch and go, and £6.25 for training missed approaches).

Good aircraft availability - we bring in extra aircraft for the summer. Don't be disappointed because you couldn't get an aircraft.

Full night facilities and training - check out our night flying page.

Seawing offers its full fleet of aircraft available for PPL hire. Our rates are highly competitive and regularly feature special offers. We have well equipped touring aircraft equipped with full navigation aids and in one case GPS.

With Southend's perfect location why not visit the continent? Seawing is able to offer full life jacket hire, help with all required clearances, flight plans, and the fuel duty drawback claim. Fly along the beautiful south coast - tea on the Isle of Wight perhaps? You can share the skies in which the Battle of Britain was fought - there are several fascinating historical airports just a short flight from Southend (Biggin Hill, Duxford, Manston). For the less ambitious a half hour local flight will let you enjoy the beauty of the estuary, Isle of Sheppey, Bradwell Bay, Hanningfield reservoir, the historical dockyards at Chatham to name but a few possibilities.

NOTE THAT WE CHARGE BY THE TACHO HOUR WHICH ROUGHLY EQUATES 0.8 : 1 AGAINST LOGGABLE FLYING TIME. (So roughly 1 tacho hour gives you 1 hour 15 minutes flying time).

Also, regular flyers and pre-payment can attract further discounts on these prices - please phone for the latest discount schemes. We do NOT charge for passengers to become temporary members and there is no surcharge for payment via credit card.
