Escuela de Pilotos Villanueva del Pardillo

At the Villanueva del Pardillo flight school, active since 1980, we want to share our passion for flying with everyone. It doesn't matter if you are an expert pilot or someone without experience who wants to do an "initiation flight" over the Guadarrama mountain range. In Villanueva del Pardillo everyone has a place and we have prepared different activities adapting to each need.

Courses for pilots:

• Basic course: this course is an approach to aviation. During six classes you will learn theoretically and practically how to handle the plane and keep it in the air. You will be the one who leads the way and you will take control from the first practical class.

• ULM degree course: if you want more than just a simple contact, this is the perfect course for you. You will learn to fly an airplane during the 15 hours of flight that we propose to obtain the official ULM pilot title.

In addition, they also carry out "initiation flights" through different areas of the Madrid skies:

• Fifteen hour itinerary: you will leave from our airfield in Villanueva del pardillo and we will head to the Guadarrama Regional Park passing through the Valmayor Reservoir.

• Half-hour itinerary: this tour is somewhat longer and you will visit areas of great cultural interest such as the Escorial monastery. You will also pass through the Valley of the Fallen, the Valmayor Reservoir and you will be surprised by the Guadarrama Park.

• One hour itinerary: this is the most complete flight. We will cross Valdemorillo and reach the Valmayor Reservoir. Afterwards we will cross the Machota de Zarzalejo until we reach the El Escorial Monastery and shortly after the Cross of the Fallen. We will also fly over the Seven Peaks of Navacerrada and the area of La Pedriza and Torrelodones back to the aerodrome.

In all "initiation flights" the client sits on the pilot's side to be able to operate the controls. These planes have dual control. The veteran instructor has been at this flight school for more than 35 years and his experience is more than 10,000 hours of instruction. You are in good hands.

The airplanes we use are state-of-the-art models, always in impeccable condition and have the mandatory insurance required by law.

The "initiation flights" that we offer are a great way to surprise a friend or your partner with a different and unrepeatable activity. Don't think twice and contact us to reserve your "initiation flight" or your place forthe pilot course.

If after completing an "initiation flight" you want to continue with our pilot courses, we will deduct the cost of the "initiation flight".initiation."

Come fly with Escuela de Pilotos Villanueva del Pardillo, in addition to training new pilots, we can accompany you as well in aerial activities that don't require any previous experience. Just choose the day and we take you to fly!

On our excursions in the Community of Madrid, we follow several routes so that you can choose the one that appeals to you the most or that you wouldn't have to take the same route the next time you come to fly with us. These are the different routes:

- The Regional Park of the Guadarrama River: it is the shortest of our itineraries since it takes only a quarter of an hour to complete it. From the track of El Pardillo, we will see the beautiful surroundings and we will have great views of the Valmayor reservoir.

- The Monastery of El Escorial: half an hour of flying will give us enough time to see this historical construction after which we will continue towards the Valley of the Fallen passing also by the reservoir as in the previous option.

- The Seven Picos and La Pedriza: this is the most comprehensive of the options we offer. We reserve one hour to fly to the mountains of Madrid, completing the previous tours that take us to El Escorial, but this time flying from Las Machotas of Zarzalejo.

We're Villanueva del Pardillo Pilots School (Escuela de Pilotos de Villanueva del Pardillo). If you want to come with us, we would like to know if you fancy flight as a hobby or as a way to spend a great time or maybe you want to get ready to become an authentic pilot. That's because we divide all the services available in this airfield located in Madrid into two different areas:

• Pilots School: we will give you the possibility to enroll in a basic course for beginners or enroll in an advanced course to prepare yourself to get a certificate to drive an ultralight.  If you choose the first option, you will attend practical classes all the time. However, if you decide to enroll in the second option, we will organize a complete course with ten-hour flight sessions in order to get the official certification
• Aerial tourism: if you choose this option, you will have the opportunity to admire the surrounding area of the city and the most important natural and architectonic points in it due to several flights in our aircrafts. These will have different lengths, depending on your specific time to complete them and how much you want to watch

If you hire the fifteen-minute offer, we will fly over Guadarrama park and we will stay for a moment to pass through Valmayor. Apart from this, if you choose the flight with a length of half an hour, you will be able to admire Valle de los Caídos after passing through El Escorial. And the last but not least, we count on one-hour flies which will arrive at Navacerrada.
