AVIATION ACADEMY
Let your dreams take flight!
Do you aspire to be a pilot and desire for further knowledge in the aviation and engineering industries? Kinross College is one of six schools in WA to offer an Aviation program.
Our Academy offers:
• Full motion Flight Simulator Students have the experience flying a 3 axis motion flight simulator. The simulator’s moving platform is sychronised with the flight simulator software, so as students manipulate the flight controls, they experience realistic sensations of rolling, pitching and yawing. The view from the cockpit provides an immersive perspective.
• Science Technology Engineering & Mathematics (STEM) related activities. This includes 3D printing, Robotics, Electrical Engineering, Laser Cutting projects, Mechatronics and Electro Technology.
• Flight Lessons Students are encouraged to participate in flying lessons outside of school. Lessons can also be booked at flying schools such as the Royal Aero Club of W.A.
• Drone The use of drones has become increasingly popular for a wide range of fields such as aerial photography, videography, inspection, surveying and mapping. Students will develop skills and techniques in drone flying.
