The story about ALB Aviation Training is also a story about the vision of two best friends.
There was no flightschool in the north-western part of Romania and therefor no chance to get more pilots flying at their little airfield at Ineu. To challenge this problem the only way was to set up a flightschool on their own. In 2019 the company behind “ALB Aviation Training” was started by David and Patrick and beginning of 2020 ALB Aviation SRL was recognised by Romanian CAA as “Declared Training Organisation” RO.DTO.02. Since then we offer flight training on airplanes, helicopters, and gliders for private pilot licenses (PPL), light aircraft pilot licenses (LAPL), and sailplanes pilot licenses (SPL), along with specialized ratings such as aerobatics and towing.
Our own claim is to conduct the training on high standards and quality, therefor most of our instructors have commercial licenses and a huge experience in aviation and instruction. No wonder that some of our former students moved on to a pilot career and are flying for Ryanair, Tarom, Condor or TuiFly now. On the other hand we want to keep our personal approach and the friendly atmosphere on the airfield. Many of our former students are still flying in the school or the related club or have their own aircraft based on our airfield.
ALB Aviation is nowadays operating at two bases in Europe. Our main operating base is at Aerodrom Ineu in western Romania, our second base is located at Oehna, just south of Berlin in eastern Germany.
