We have worked hard to offer opportunities for students to benefit greatly while learning from the first-hand experience of our professional instructors, especially now as we have a fully equipped hangar under construction for our modern training aircraft at International Airport Liepajaand completed an order of additional Diamond Aircraft to support the continued growth of our training capabilities.”
