About this Site
Written by Ian Valentine   

Image This site is the home of Free Flight Aviation, a shared ownership group of Cirrus Aircraft established in the UK. All our aircraft are registered N147xx hence the domain name "cirrus147.com".

We enjoy sharing our enthusiasm for these fantastic aircraft, and the capability they bring for personal transportation around Europe with others.

If you are just interested in learning about Cirrus Flying there is much to read.

If you want to use them yourself, please give us a call.  You will usually get Ian Valentine the founder on 07967965298 most times of the day.  He can discuss with you what it takes to join, and possibly arrange a demo flight for you.  Alternatively you can register with the site, and get access to the "How To Join" sections, as well as being able to post in the forums.

If you choose to join us as a flying member, you can then also gain access to the "Members Section" ...

Our History
Written by Ian Valentine   
Free Flight Aviation began operating in April 2002, with an SR20 based at Denham. Then we had one aircraft, N147CD which had one major Shareholder (Ian Valentine) and four additional Member Pilots. We ran the system for a year to see if it worked and soon had a small flying club of our own.

The Scheme makes people happy. When people are happy - news travels fast! Now, we have 6 aircraft in the UK, with and are the longest standing, best established Cirrus shared ownership scheme available.
