Aeropole will be present at one of the largest airshow in the Nordic countries this year, the Finnish Airshow, which is taking place in Kauhava  over the weekend of  June 14-15th, 2025. Welcome to find out about training to become a professional (or private) pilot as well as about Diamond aircraft–only one will fit at our stand but it’s going to be an awesome one. Follow the red flags to visit our booth/tent!

Take a look at photos from the 2023 Finnish Airshow in Turku here or from the 2023 Roskilde airshow here to tune into the mood!

We will hold the MEP Ground School from 0900 to 1700 LT on the 5th of February 2025 in our classroom at Technopolis Vantaa, Finland.  There will be a possibility to join online but we highly recommend to be there in person as we will conclude the day with the MEP theory exam, which cannot be taken remotely.

This theoretical part of the Multi-Engine Piston class rating course includes general multi-engine theory as well as DA42NG specific training. For more information about the multi-engine class rating click here!

The price for this theoretical part is 980 EUR. The price for practical flight training is currently 7 920 EUR and will be scheduled individually with every student. Prices include VAT 25.5%. (Customers in Finland; Denmark customers please refer to Denmark price list.)

Prerequisites: a valid PPL(A) license and 70h total PIC flight time. Confirm your attendance as soon as possible by contacting us!

Aeropole will arrange the next A-UPRT theoretical course on Monday, August 26th, 09:45-16:00 at Aviapolis (Vantaa) training base. You may also ask for possibility to attend via telepresence. The practical training will be scheduled individually with every student.*

The A-UPRT course is mandatory for all commercial pilots before attending the first type rating course. The course includes five hours of theoretical instruction and three hours of practical flight training with an instructor. Our experienced instructors and the modern fleet will ensure a comfortable, safe, and fun experience!

The course price is 2 975 EUR (incl. VAT), including theoretical and practical training. Please register your attendance no later than Thursday, August 22th by contacting us.

We intend to organise the Instrument Rating Instructor course (for Aeroplanes) in accordance with Part-FCL at our HQ in Vantaa, Finland, this summer 2024. (If you are already a Flight Instructor, your licence issuing authority may use the abbreviation “FI-IR”, instead of “IRI”, to designate the privileges.) Get in touch if you are interested to make sure you don’t miss the train–such instructor courses are not scheduled every year!
