About Us

SFC was born as Schofields Flying Club Ltd. and has grown to be the largest flying club in NSW. The club has had a proud history of flying operations over 57 years, with flight training and club flying as its core activities. SFC Pilot Academy Tamworth was born in 2023 with the growth of SFC in the last 20 years.

Sydney Flight College was introduced by the club in 2001 with a variety of academic accreditations. With continuing growth, the club now distinguishes its training and club activities as a family of SFC names. SFC Pilot Academy Tamworth and Sydney Flying Club are newer faces to the business now continuing the proud heritage of Schofields Flying Club Limited.
