About FRAS
Established in 1997.
FRAS (Flyright Airsport) has a rich history dating back to its establishment in 1997 by Capt. Gurcharan Singh and his wife in Mersing, Malaysia. Originally known as FRAS Flying Club Johor, the organization began its operations with a focus on various aviation activities including static line parachuting, freefall parachuting, tandem parachuting, microlight aircraft building and flight training, as well as experimental aircraft building and flight training.
Overview
Over the years, FRAS expanded its operations and in 2001, it relocated to Senai International Airport in Johor, Malaysia. At this new location, FRAS began offering light sport aircraft flight training using the Aero AT-4 LSA, as well as private pilot flight training utilizing Cessna 172 and Piper PA28-161 aircraft.
Young Aviators program
In 2014, FRAS made a significant milestone by establishing the first Young Aviators program in Asia, catering to individuals aged 8 to 16 years old. This program has been recognized as one of the best in the region, fostering a new generation of aviation enthusiasts.
FRAS's notable achievements
One of FRAS's notable achievements is being the only flying club approved by the Civil Aviation Authority of Malaysia (CAAM) as an Approved Maintenance Organization (AMO), Continuing Airworthiness Management Organization (CAMO), and Airworthiness Review Staff (ARS). This recognition underscores FRAS's commitment to safety and adherence to regulatory standards.
