-1 in stock

You rent an aircraft from us, and you decide to fly to another airport. Once there, you enjoy the local cuisine, refuel, recharge, and so on. If you fly back after an hour, that's perfectly fine. We'll only charge the rental price of the aircraft. However, if it takes longer, such as multiple hours or even days, then we cannot use the aircraft for lessons or rent it to other people. In this case, we charge a fee for the time that we ourselves cannot use the aircraft.

How does it work?

  • Call us to discuss your flight plan. Then we can check availability at 055 203 2230.
  • The rental fee you pay for flying depends on the aircraft and you can find this on our website.
  • One hour on the ground between the outbound and return flight is included
  • If you stay on the ground longer than 1 hour, we charge 50 euros per hour for this. We round the time up.
  • We only charge for time during opening hours (Mon-Sat from 9:00 to 18:00 and Sun 10:00 - 19:00)

Examples

  • You rent our Velis and fly to Stadtlohn, you charge the aircraft, have a cup of coffee and fly back within the hour. You then only pay for aircraft rental.
  • You go to Texel on Monday morning with the Explorer. You have an extensive lunch. 2 hours and 30 minutes after landing on Texel, you fly back. You arrive at Teuge at the end of the afternoon. In addition to the aircraft rental, you pay for 2 hours of compensation (first hour is included, one and a half hours we round up)
  • You depart Saturday afternoon at 15:00 to Northern France with the Bristell B23. You land there a few hours later. Sunday late morning you arrive back at Teuge at 12:00 after a 3-hour flight. You do not pay any compensation for the absence of the aircraft because these hours were all outside the opening hours of E-Flight Academy.

    I always had this little desire to "fly a plane". We don't have this opportunity in India (unless you sign up for the full license training etc). Last week, when I visited Netherlands, my son recommended E-Flight academy. I had booked the class for the day I arrived. However the weather was not good and the school rescheduled it to another day. We drove down from Amsterdam and were greeted by the trainer. Warm welcome, coffee, and explained about the aircraft, the controls and other aspects. I got into the plane and was guided superbly by the trainer - to the extent that I could do most of the actions - taxi, takeoff, some of the maneuvering (stall, 360 turn, go up down, fly along the river etc). Landing was done by the trainer and followed by a debrief. Personally, a superb experience - the school, the staff who managed the appointment, the trainer and the actual flying !

    I fly as an instructor on the same type of electric plane back home in Norway, so when I visited the area I just had to do a quick flight with E-Flight. This school is nothing other than impressive. The details put the dot over the i. They even have their own solar panels on the roof. Both the instructor and the rest of the staff are super welcoming and friendly, and skilled. The Velis Electro is an awesome airplane, quiet and comfortable - and E-Flights instructors make this into a great experience. Highly recommended! Thank you for being awesome, and thank you for helping bring electric aviation to the World, E-Flight!

    My son (16) flew (himself!) with a seasoned E-Flight Academy instructor and could not stop talking about it on the way back home. Don't think this is just a fun attraction though, they are serious about flying. And take you serious. Even in this introductionary flight he got to learn a lot about the procedures, the plane, the avionics. And of course it is also great fun! It was a wonderful afternoon. And since it was an electric flight and E-flight Academy creates their own solar energy it was silent and clean! Thank you so much, we wish you many successes in pioneering the future of flight!

    I did a trial lesson here and it was an amazing experience! The aircraft are brand new, the instructor was great and I could control the aircraft for most of the flight, doing some really interesting manoeuvres. It was also a good opportunity to learn more about electric aircraft.

    Last Thursday I went flying at E-flight academy in Teuge to try out a class on the Pipistrel velis electro, I was really looking forward to flying an electric plane as its something new and innovative. The instructor was very friendly and gave a great explanation of the basics. While in the air the instructor still demonstrated some manoeuvres such as a stall and sharp turns. When it was my turn to fly I made some turns and went flying around the clouds, it was great! Overall I would say give it a try, flying electric is also a lot quieter.
