✈️ WHY WAIT? FUEL. LAND. REFUEL. GO.

This week, we were pleased to welcome to Beccles Aerodrome for Jet A-1 fuel.

Unlike many international airfields, Beccles can accommodate most helicopters requiring Jet A-1, whether you need a hot refuel or a straightforward turnaround.

🚁 No waiting for fuel trucks.
🚁 No queuing behind commercial airline traffic.
🚁 No unnecessary delays.
🚁 Professional aviation service with a personal approach.

And while you’re here, why not step inside and experience our brand-new café? Great food, great facilities and a relaxed environment for crew and passengers.

But did you know?
🛃 Beccles Aerodrome is a Customs Airfield.

For private aviation, corporate operations, helicopters and visiting aircraft, Beccles offers a convenient alternative to the congestion of larger international airports.

Land. Fuel. Refresh. Go.

A warm welcome to one of our special VIP customers, arriving at Beccles Aerodrome for a Jet A1 fuel stop. ⛽️✈️

While the aircraft was being taken care of, the aircrew headed over to our brand-new café for some well-deserved refreshments and a little fuel of their own! ☕️🥪

At Virage Aviation, it’s not just about looking after the aircraft, it’s about looking after the people flying them too.

🚁🔥 From breaking news to busy skies!

Beccles Aerodrome became a vital hub as and used us as their refuelling base while covering the devastating wildfire at Dunwich. Our thoughts are with everyone affected and all the emergency services working tirelessly at the scene.

Adding to the action, we also welcomed a visiting JetRanger helicopter for a hot refuel before it continued its journey.

Days like these highlight the important role regional airfields play in supporting news crews, emergency operations and visiting aircraft alike.

✈️ Fuel. Fly. Support. Repeat.

✈️ A milestone that marks the beginning of an incredible aviation journey!

Huge congratulations to Will, aged just 16, on achieving his first solo flight towards his Private Pilot Licence (PPL(A)) at Virage Aviation, Beccles Aerodrome, on Saturday.

Taking to the skies alone for the very first time is a moment every pilot remembers forever—a true testament to Will’s hard work, dedication, skill, and determination.

Everyone at Virage Aviation is incredibly proud of this fantastic achievement and wishes Will every success as he continues his journey towards becoming a fully qualified pilot.

The fantastic weather over the last few days has brought plenty of aviation visitors to Beccles Aerodrome and Virage Aviation, making for some fantastic sights both on the ground and in the air.

Among the highlights, PC12 visited to pick up passengers to the world-famous Goodwood Festival of Speed, while our own Diamond DA40 also made the journey.

Here are just a few of the great moments we’ve captured over the last few days. A huge thank you to everyone who visited, flew with us, or simply stopped by to enjoy the atmosphere. We look forward to welcoming many more aircraft and visitors throughout the summer!

🎉 Congratulations to Patrick! 🚁

Another major milestone achieved at Virage Aviation & Helicopter Academy!

Yesterday, Patrick successfully completed his Cross Country Qualifier, demonstrating the skill, confidence, and planning that every helicopter pilot needs before progressing to the next stage of training.
From mastering navigation to making sound decisions in the cockpit, this is a significant achievement on the journey to earning a helicopter licence.
A huge congratulations from all of us—it’s been fantastic watching your progress, and we can’t wait to see what comes next.
The sky isn’t the limit… it’s just the beginning. 🚁
