It is with a heavy heart that I have to inform you that Virtual Flight New Zealand is closing down. For the last 6 years, I was in the lucky position to teach you the principles of flight and many of you have continued on and gained your private pilot license. Especially working with the various schools in and around Auckland have always put that well-known smile on my face.

For some time now there is an urgent need for my skills and knowledge elsewhere and after carefully weighing up all the pro’s and con’s I have decided to follow this new challenge. It is therefore that Virtual Flight NZ will close its doors as per February 1, 2020.

The outstanding bookings will be honoured but no further bookings will be accepted. I like to thank all of you out there, from local schools in Auckland to ATC operators from around the country to all the CPL pilots, who together over the years have made all my days very enjoyable.

Rest me to wish you all the very best in your life. Continue on your patch of getting your wings, and remember to smile any moment of your days.

Cheers

CPT. Herman Smeets
