Andrew DaviasWonderful flight training

I would like to thank Guthrie Aviation for my PPL flight training. Throughout it all, I have certainly enjoyed it. The training has been fantastic and the flight instructors have been brilliant to me.

Thanks very much to the Guthrie Aviation team for the professional PPL training received. Having such passionate and knowledgeable lecturers/instructors who scheduled me in whenever I needed was brilliant and much appreciated. Keep up the good work!

To the GAS team! Congratulations on creating a "world class" flight training school....It has been inspirational to see the transformation over the years. I was fortunate enough to do my multi-engine IR last year through the school based on their newly approved IR training course. This new approach made it an absolute pleasure, with ground school and exams being written at the school rather than at CAAZ made it far more convenient! Thanks to you all at GAS for providing us Zim pilots with a truly professional facility and service... All the best

Special thanks to the Guthrie Aviation team for helping me through the start of my aviation career. My courses have been well organised and easy to understand. The welcoming but very professional feel at the school makes learning a pleasure and instills good disciple right from the start. I have enjoyed my time studying

Having enrolled at Guthrie aviation in 2007 I can proudly look back at the hard work and hours all the instructors dedicated to what has become a great career for me. I stand proud being associated with the school which always will be a home for me. Thank you very much and see you soon for another turning point in my career.

Neil PadmoreExcellent Service

Today was the last day of my PPL Ground School, instructors were excellent, Zoom calls went very well, training material is comprehensive and most informative. I have been most impressed with the adoption of tech in the training process. As a person who has spent the last 20+ years in tech, I felt most comfortable, despite having zero flying experience. Here's looking forward to the my next steps in the aviation sphere and I will not hesitate to sing the praises of the Guthrie experience. In closing, it is worth mentioning that the personnel at Guthrie have only added to the pleasurable experience.

After starting my training in SA, coming to Guthrie was a breath of fresh air. The teaching was far superior in the classroom and in the air. Thanks to Guthrie for making me a more knowledgeable and safer pilot. A great atmosphere and very approachable staff.

Special thanks to Guthrie Aviation, for helping me start off my aviation career. With recently completing some new aircraft ratings and helping me get through my Commercial pilots license exams, The training is thorough and well organised. Look forward to completing the rest of my CPL at Guthrie Aviation

I have had flight instruction and testing through FTOs in USA, UK and most recently in my native Zimbabwe. Your professionalism, standards and dedication to developing safe and competent pilots is second to none. I was surprised but very grateful to have plugged fundamental gaps in the knowledgeable and safe operation of 'complex' aircraft; my profound gratitude to you guys, thank you!!

Thank you for all the hard work and extra effort put into my Caravan course. I found it to be professional and of a very high standard. Good quality training.

I recently got my PPL after thanks to my training at Guthrie Aviation. Due to financial issues it had taken 5 years, punctuated by frequent and often long breaks in between, which was less than ideal. My instructors were fantastic managed my slow progress as best as they could. I was pushed really hard with a mix of both encouragement and harsh admonition which I believe has made me a better pilot. Much thanks to whole Guthrie team.

Thank you to the team for helping me get my type conversion onto the Cessna 180. I really appreciated their enthusiasm and commitment to transfer as much of their considerable knowledge and experience onto me as they could, in order that I could safely and correctly operate this "tricky" aircraft. I would have to go a long way to find this kind of professional instruction.

After completing my CPL training in 2011, I joined Guthrie Aviation to do my CPL conversion. I received a warm reception from the team at Guthrie team as well as a fantastic service and insight into the flying in Zimbabwe at the time. They’ll treat you as part of the family, and from the very first day you feel welcomed into this family. All instructors at G.A are dedicated and professional, no matter when, if you have a question, they’ll answer. To aspiring pilots I would like to say “ When you think Aviation, think Guthrie Aviation, they will surely make that difference."

A great & heartfelt thank you to the team at Guthrie Aviation for all the help in converting SA to ZW licence. Facilities, training & professionalism was beyond expectation especially in going out of their way to get things done. Thank you!

Zviko NyamakuraMy life - Wonderful

Guthrie Aviation will always have a special place in my heart, It was there that I first learned that I could do things I never thought possible. Important life core values were instilled in me and I rely upon them as a guide everyday. Guthrie Aviation gave me the chance to find where I wanted my place in the world. It gave me the understanding to be able to see the world in different perspectives. I found the person I wanted to be and took that knowledge to help me throughout the rest of my life. Every day I am thankful for the time I spent there to be able to sour high above the clouds; making a difference. To the entire Guthrie Aviation team. I thank you.

I would love to thank Guthrie Aviation as a whole for the quality of training i received during the conversion of my S.A Cpl to Zim CPL.May you guys continue maintaining your high standards which i really appreciate and us as pilots the margin of safety will be well improved.

Guthrie Aviation is a great place to learn how to fly! Organised, professional, friendly, experienced, knowledgeable, enthusiastic; it has been an absolute joy for me to have obtained my PPL under their tutelage. I thank them for all their hard work and dedication in sharing the passion for flying!

I joined Guthrie Aviation School in 2011 to undertake a PPL part-time. 50 hours and two years later I emerged with a Zim PPL. The team at Guthrie's patience, ability and sense of humour were instrumental in preparing me for the final test. In particular my instructors expert tuition, seasoned professional advice and constant encouragement enabled me to make the best of my practical training. While, the ground school instructors went the extra mile to ensure I passed my ground school exams. Many thanks for a memorable experience Guthrie and a rewarding introduction to the world of aviation.

Just a small comment on yesterday, how great it is to see the incredible metamorphosis that is taking place at GAS! I recall doing my I.R. with you in 1994 in those same rooms and how different ( and much busier) things are today! I do miss the piece of arbitrary bent coat hangar wire holding up the toilet seat though! Thanks for the very long hours put in with me yesterday trying to teach an old dog how to fly a new plane!

Guthrie Aviation is a highly professional organisation driven by strong leadership and excellent instructors. I have learnt an enormous amount during the PPL course. Thank you to the team for the patience and guidance in the air and on the ground.

I completed a PPL in the UK and wanted to fly in Zimbabwe and Guthrie helped me every step of the way to achieving my goal; from advice on verification and CAAZ exams to conversion training and passing the flight test. The team are warm and professional with instructors that have huge experience and a calm teaching manner. I thoroughly enjoyed my flying experience with Guthrie Aviation, thank you.

Thank you so much Guthrie Aviation for training me so well in getting my ppl. You are the best! If you want to get the best training and be a good, safe pilot. GUTHRIE AVIATION IS THE BEST PLACE TO BE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I would like to firstly commend the GAS team for a first class professional flight center. The training I received was comprehensive and thorough. There were no corners cut and I believe that it will make me a better and safer pilot as a result. The staff are excellent, polite and professional and it was a pleasure to deal with the whole GAS team. Should anyone be wanting to train or charter I highly recommend GAS. Regards Serge Levy

Thanks so much for all the training and wisdom over the past 7 years. I was thinking the other day about our first flight together in June 2005! Catch u soon!

Thank you Guthrie Aviation in help me to start my PPL. I would like to finish my PPL and do CPL and Flight Instructor Rating all at Guthrie Aviation. No funds is making me grounded.

I did it, got my PPL with lots of help and guidance from a truly professional team. Thank you all at Guthrie.

In the 1990s I learned to fly with Guthrie in Cessna 172 Z-YWF . A very professional approach with respect to practical learning as well as the physical flying. I gained my PPL, and notched a couple of additional ratings before leaving Zimbabwe . Craig and his team helped me gain enough experience to fly extensively in Western Australia under a temporary licence. Guthrie Aviation are a very professional outfit, a good place to start learning to fly, and then go confidently in the direction of your dreams .

Thanks very much to the Guthrie Aviation team for the professional PPL training. It was incredibly organised, and motivation was easy to get because of the passionate and knowledgeable instructors. An amazing experience looking forward to more flying with you guys.

I would like to thank Guthrie Aviation as a whole for the training and assistance i received whilst i was converting my South African CPL to the Zimbabwean CPL. Your assistance and profesional atmosphere is highly appreciated and please keep the standards high. I am looking forward to carry further training with you guys and better myself as a pilot and contribute to the Aviation industry.

Thanks very much for doing the DG with our Zim and Zambian crew. Its great to see that Zimbabwe has now got these kind of cources on offer. I really hope that you get the support from the rest of the Zim operators as i can rate it better than any of the South African cources. Our next plan is to get you into our other operations in both Botswana and Namibia. Please let us know once you have approval for CRM and SEPT as we will need these. We as a company would like to support your training organisation to ensure that our team has the best training possible.From the Wilderness Air team thanks very much.

Just completed the Cirrus SR22 Type conversion. Guthries always go above and beyond great facilities great people, you always leave with more knowledge and experience than you arrive with.. Thanks Guthries!

Training at Guthrie Aviation was pivotal in achieving my dream of flying. Craig and Clive were exceptional instructors, tailoring every lesson to my career goals with expertise and dedication. Their focus on precision, professionalism, and real-world airline preparation made all the difference in my PPL, CPL, and Instrument Rating journey. Guthrie Aviation offers a world-class training environment, and I’m deeply grateful for their unwavering commitment to my success. Highly recommended for aspiring aviators.
