TRAINING CENTERS
Aéropyrénées has several training centers.
The historic center is located at Perpignan Airport. Nestled between the sea and the mountains, this region offers all the advantages to succeed and enjoy your training.
The Pyrénées-Orientales destination benefits from exceptional annual sunshine (over 300 days of sunshine per year) between the Pyrenees and the Mediterranean, in the south of the Occitanie region. The setting and geographical location of Aéropyrénées allow you to train under optimal conditions.
The second center, based in Toussus-le-Noble, also has major advantages to support the various stages of your training.
It is notably situated at the only airfield in Île-de-France where pilot training is possible, thanks to the airfield’s equipment with instrument landing radio aids and night operations (up to 10:30 PM).
