Aeroclub Maritime at Lelystad Airport

An active aeroclub since 1971, with roots at Naval Air Station De Kooy going back to 1969.

Aeroclub Maritime is a flying club at Lelystad Airport for student pilots, licensed pilots and non-flying members with a passion for aviation. Our association combines an approved DTO, modern training aircraft and the club life of experienced members, instructors and pilots.

Everything that matters for safe club flying and training comes together at Lelystad. You fly from a controlled airport (CTR), gaining experience with radio communication, traffic handling and professional airspace procedures. That is a clear advantage for every student pilot and club member.

We operate modern, well-equipped training aircraft that remain affordable through our participation model. Lelystad is our home base and offers favourable operating conditions, while we also regularly make training and club flights, for example to Texel.

Aeroclub Maritime has a long history of training pilots and still maintains good relationships with both defence and civil aviation authorities. That background is reflected today in a practical, safety-conscious and down-to-earth club culture.

Experience, training and safety

Good flight training should be verifiable. Our website therefore shows not only what we offer, but also who provides the training, which aircraft we fly and how we make student progress and flight safety visible.
