On 5 September 2026, Sky Training Aviation opened the doors of its Boumerdès headquarters, and you showed up! With more than 500 people registered, we expected a great day. We did not expect to see so many people crowding in to talk, discover and dream about aviation.
Young enthusiasts, industry professionals, instructors, students, social media fans, influencers and exhibitors: everyone came together around one shared desire, the sky. And as with every edition, the event was 100% free and with no commitment.
If you were there, thank you from the bottom of our hearts. If you missed it, here is the story of the day and, above all, the next dates in Tlemcen and Oran.
A day driven by a passionate community
A successful open day is first and foremost about people. In Boumerdès, we were lucky enough to bring together:
- Young aviation enthusiasts who dream of becoming pilots
- Industry professionals who came to talk and share their experience
- Our instructors, who passed on their knowledge and passion
- Our students, the best ambassadors of Sky Training Aviation
- Our teams, on hand to welcome every visitor
- Our exhibitor friends, who kept their stands lively all day long
- Our social media fans, finally together in real life
A huge thank you to the influencers! We would especially like to thank those who joined this aviation event. Thanks to their lives, stories and videos, the day reached far beyond Boumerdès and introduced the world of aviation to an even wider community. Thank you for your energy and support!
The day's programme
Between talks, discussions and hands-on experiences, here is what you could enjoy on site:
- Talk with our instructors: an overview of the pilot profession, the stages of training and the reality of the job.
- Q&A session: the audience could ask the instructors directly about the training path, entry requirements and career prospects.
- Discussions with our sales teams: a presentation of our training offers and personalised guidance for each visitor according to their plans.
- Portable flight simulator experience: a first taste of what flying feels like, open to everyone, including beginners.
- Professional Beechcraft 200 simulator experience: the highlight for many visitors. It replicates the Beechcraft 200 series of the King Air family, a twin-engine turboprop used all over the world. A simulator of this level makes it possible to practise procedures, emergencies and system failures in safe and realistic conditions.
- Meeting our exhibitors: our partners presented their activities in aviation and training.
- Presentation of our PPL and ATPL courses: in-depth discussions about our two programmes, both approved by ANAC.
Our PPL and ATPL courses, approved by ANAC
Our academy offers two pilot training programmes:
- PPL (Private Pilot Licence): the private pilot licence, the first step towards flying an aircraft on your own.
- ATPL (Airline Transport Pilot Licence): the airline pilot licence, the highest level of licence, for those aiming at a career with an airline.
These programmes are approved by ANAC (National Civil Aviation Agency), Algeria's civil aviation authority.
