Singapore Flying College
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Singapore Flying College (Abbreviation: SFC) is a flight school based in Singapore, and is fully owned and operated by Singapore Airlines. Established in 1988, it trains ab-initio pilots for Singapore Airlines, SilkAir and Singapore Airlines Cargo. The college accepts self-sponsored students for training as well.
The SFC headquarters is located at Building 112/966, Western Avenue, Seletar East Camp, Singapore, in close proximity to Seletar Airport. SFC operates two other flying training facilities in Australia, one at Perth (Jandakot Airport), Western Australia and the other at Maroochydore (Sunshine Coast Airport), Queensland.
The Perth facility operates the Cessna 172R and the Beechcraft Baron Be58 for training ab-initio pilots, leading to a multi-engine Commercial Pilot's License (with Instrument Rating). The Maroochydore facility provides advanced jet training on the Learjet 45 for who will be joining Singapore Airlines and Singapore Airlines Cargo.
