Training area

The Borne Sulinowo training area

We train on the site of a former garrison in Borne Sulinowo, West Pomerania, Poland. Soviet troops were stationed here until 1992. Today you fly over forest and sandy tracks, over tanks and armoured vehicles, and inside abandoned buildings.

A town that was not on the map

From the 1930s the area around Borne Sulinowo served as a training ground and garrison. After 1945 Soviet troops were stationed here, and for decades the town was closed to civilians and left off maps.

The last units left in 1992. They left behind barracks, halls, depots and vast training grounds that we now use for FPV training.

Terrain for every stage of training

    Wide spaces for your first 5″ FPV flights and low-level flying practice.
