    In conjunction with Aviation Australia, Chartair were delighted to support a Northern Territory Government initiative to provide maintenance training for Year 11 students in Darwin and Alice Springs.


    The Certificate II in Aircraft Line Maintenance commenced in late 2018 and students of the inaugural course graduated in November 2020. 


    Chartair supported the program throughout the two-year term by providing access to hangars, classrooms and three de-commissioned aircraft. 


    We have subsequently employed two graduates of the first course as apprentice engineers within our maintenance organisation.

    Each June we were delighted to host a visit by 20 or so students and teachers from Yirara College to our facility in Alice Springs.


    This annual visit by year 9 students as part of their study into a book called “Hatchett” (a story about a 13-year-old boy who is onboard a light aircraft that crashes in the Canadian wilderness).


    For the students, the visit gives them an opportunity to see firsthand the type of aircraft they have read about and hopefully strengthen their understanding of the story. For Chartair, with this behind-the-scenes look at our operation, we hope to sow the seed of interest in the aviation industry as a potential career path for them when they complete their school studies.

    In early November 2021, ABC News Darwin shared a beautiful story about the Mums On Bikes group and its goal to provide bikes, including buggies, to Mums with young children on Galiwin’ku - the largest community on Elcho Island, 550 km north-east of Darwin in the Northern Territory.

    The initial idea of this project is to support mums with young children to easily get around with a means of environmentally friendly transport. And it’s great for health benefits and is fun for the kids to ride on the buggies.

    The group had 40 bikes and trailers donated and was looking for donations to help get them to Elcho.

    Chartair came across this post and reached out to the organiser of the group Belinda Morton and offered our assistance in transporting a few items at no cost. 

    In less than a week, Chartair organised 2 flights to Elcho to deliver items for the group. The mums and kids were so excited to receive the bikes and buggies early so that more children could enjoy the experience of riding with their mums.


    It’s great we can give a helping hand to our community!
