The Nicosia Aeroclub has deep roots in the story of Cypriot aviation.
Originally established as the Cyprus Aero Club, the organization was founded by a small group of passionate pilots and aviation enthusiasts who wanted to make flying accessible to the people of Cyprus. In the early years, aviation on the island was still developing, and private flying opportunities were rare. The club’s founders were driven by a shared dream — to promote general aviation, train new pilots, and build a strong community united by a love for flight.
The Cyprus Aero Club began its activities with limited resources, operating a small fleet of light aircraft and offering flight training to anyone eager to learn. Despite humble beginnings, the club quickly became a cornerstone of aviation culture in Cyprus. It served as a training ground for many of the island’s early pilots — some of whom went on to become commercial aviators, instructors, or leaders in Cyprus’s aviation sector.
As aviation expanded and Cyprus developed more regional airfields, the club grew in both membership and ambition. It hosted air displays, safety seminars, and community events, helping to promote the importance of aviation and flight safety across the island. The club’s commitment to high training standards and its friendly, welcoming atmosphere earned it respect among both local and international aviation communities.
In time, as aviation activity became more centered around the capital, the organization evolved into what is now known as the Nicosia Aeroclub. This change reflected not only a new chapter in the club’s journey but also its close connection with the Nicosia region — the heart of Cyprus’s aviation spirit.
Today, the Nicosia Aeroclub continues to uphold the proud legacy of the original Cyprus Aero Club. It remains a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting flying, training new generations of pilots, and keeping the dream of flight alive in Cyprus. The club offers discovery flights, private pilot training, and community events for members and guests.
Over the years, countless individuals have taken their first flight, earned their first licence, or rekindled their love for aviation under the guidance of the club’s instructors and members. From the early propeller-driven trainers to today’s modern aircraft, one thing has remained constant — the Nicosia Aeroclub’s passion for flight, friendship, and excellence in aviation.
