AOPA HQ - Powered by the Sun

AOPA UK is an independent membership association advocating for General Aviation Pilots, Instructors, Student Pilots, Aircraft Owners and businesses. We are part of the International Council of Aircraft Owner and Pilot Associations (IAOPA) protecting your freedom to fly globally.
Our mission is to represent the interests of our members by
“Securing our freedom to fly” through Influence, Information and Assistance.
AOPA acts as an influencer of policy and regulation that supports the continued operations, development and long-term future of General Aviation including businesses, private flying and aerodromes within the United Kingdom building on our extensive network and global relationships. We provide valuable services to our members through the provision of information and knowledge and provide direct assistance allowing our members to conduct their operations in a safe, efficient, sustainable and enjoyable manner and fully exploiting their freedoms to fly.
