Commercial Property for Sale in Greenbushes

An exceptional opportunity to acquire one of South Africa’s most respected and established aviation training academies as a fully operational going concern. Founded over 45 years ago by renowned aviation pioneer John English, Progress Flight Academy has built a legacy of excellence in pilot training, aviation education, and operational success. This is far more than the purchase of a profitable business — it is the rare opportunity to take ownership of an institution deeply rooted in South African aviation history and positioned for significant future growth. The sale includes the complete operational ecosystem: Licensed and accredited aviation training academy Operational certifications and aviation approvals Existing student base and active clientele Land, buildings, hangars, and infrastructure Private aerodrome and runway rights Aircraft fleet, including twin-prop training aircraft Flight simulators and training equipment What truly distinguishes Progress Flight Academy is its ownership of a private aerodrome — a feature possessed by very few flight schools worldwide. The purchaser acquires not only the physical assets, but also the operational rights attached to the aerodrome itself. This creates a substantial competitive advantage, allowing students to maximise productive flight training hours without the delays and congestion associated with commercial airports. The academy’s accredited training programmes are recognised both nationally and internationally, creating strong expansion potential across South Africa, the broader African market, and international student recruitment. With global demand for qualified pilots continuing to rise, the business is ideally positioned to deliver affordable, high-quality aviation training to a growing market. Further enhancing the academy’s appeal is its ownership of advanced flight simulators and multi-engine training capability, enabling students to progress through comprehensive career-focused aviation pathways in-house. Built on decades of reputation, operational excellence, and aviation passion, Progress Flight Academy offers a stable and proven foundation for an investor or aviation entrepreneur ready to expand, innovate, and elevate the business into its next era. This is a rare chance to own not only the land and infrastructure — but the sky above it.
