Our Aircraft
Mid Anglia Aviation providing trial flights and full pilot training on Fixedwing, Flexwing, and super sophisticated 600 KG modern high speed aircraft.
G-CLPT. C42 Charlie 560kg MTOW
German Manufactured. The C42 is the benchmark for fixed wing pilot training made by Comco.
Flying at 560kg MTOW, the Charlie model is the highest performer in our C42 Ab Initio training fleet. Off the ground in 50 metres, its performance is far superior to group A light aircraft. In the air its roll response can take it from 60 degrees to 60 degrees in 3 seconds yet it can also be a docile long distance cruiser. We have 3 C42 aircraft in the fleet.
SHARK S600 G-MAAL 600 kg MTOW
Slovakian manufactured sophisticated aircraft – our flagship aircraft and the ultimate flying machine for going places. Flying is enjoyable when comfortably seated in ergonomically designed adjustable seats in an aircraft capable of safely covering distance at tremendous speed. In this aircraft, everything falls within easy reach. The tandem layout means the views are fantastic from either side and manoeuvrability second to none. This is a record breaker in both speed and endurance. A fighter aircraft in all but size and price.
The ultimate fast fixed wing experience which is available for trial flights with our qualified flying instructors.
Skyleader JA400 G-MAAZ 600kg MTOW
Sitting between the C42 defacto training machine and the super sophisticated Shark 600 is the newest addition to the fleet and it is a mid point specification model. It is the Skyleader 400 and has been built to our specification in the Czech republic.
The C42 is very simple to learn to fly having only a control stick, throttle, flap lever and a foot control for each foot.
The Shark on the other hand has retractable undercarriage, propellor pitch control, autopilot and many features as part of the inbuilt EFIS computor information system. It’s speed (150kts +) and agility requires a higher degree of skill and demands a level of currency to fly it well and therefore safely.
There has been a need for something in between. Offering the next level of sophistication above the C42, equipped with less “toys” than Shark, but new, modern and sophisticated. (Take look at the interior with its premium leather sport seats). It is the first to a Flying School in the UK and another first for Mid Anglia Aviation.
Already cleared to fly in the 600kg category, it is seen here just prior to commencing flight to the UK. We flew it to Beccles and arrived 22 March 2026.
The aircraft is added to the Mid Anglia Aviation training fleet ready for the new flying season.
The futures not just bright – its -orange-
P&M GT450 Weightshift / Flexwing
The GT450 has been established for many years as the choice for those wishing to have the open air experience. Among the aircraft in its class, it is the easiest to learn to fly due to its compliant bar control to wing system. GT450. Made by P&M in the UK until 2020 when the company transferred it’s manufacturing overseas. Designed by Dr Bill Brookes as one of a number of aircraft built by P&Mit is aimed squarely at ease of operation for pilot training. However, it is a very competant distance traveller for everything from the local flight to touring.
