You don’t just take a licence here: you learn to fly.

What We Teach

Our flight school (IT.DTO.012) offers complete training courses for aspiring pilots, guided by qualified instructors in a safe and stimulating environment. You start from nothing and go as far as you want to go: some stop at their first licence, and some, a few years later, find themselves landing on a glacier.

DTO IT.DTO.012 — a school approved by ENAC, the Italian civil aviation authority, for pilot licences and ratings.
VDS school no. 149-AECI — recognised by the Aero Club d'Italia for microlight certificates.

The only school in Italy

Mountain Flying

Since 1999 our Powered Flight School has been training pilots for the MOU rating (EASA FCL.815), and at the beginning of 2026 it is still the only school in Italy to offer this discipline. You learn to land safely on sloping strips, on snow and on ice, and to reach places that no road will ever reach.

Introductory Flight

Discover what flying really means: not as a passenger, but at the controls, with an instructor by your side. Choose between an aeroplane, a microlight or a glider and experience flight first-hand.

It can be an experience to remember or the first step towards a new passion.

Flying without an engine, reading the air. At Belluno the mountains work for you: this is the discipline that gives the greatest rewards here.

VDS / VM (Microlights)

The most direct way to start really flying. The Italian microlight certificate, flown on the Tecnam P92E, at a cost that stays within reach of those who fly for the love of it.

Mountain cross-country course

For pilots who do not want the mountain landing rating, the club offers a theory and practical course on flying among the mountains, to move safely through fascinating but demanding terrain: meteorology, navigation techniques and strategies for slopes and valleys. For aeroplane (GA) and microlight (VDS) pilots.
