Dr. Peter Luthaus
Pilot, Instructor, Experience Builder
I bring two worlds together: profound flying competence and an eye for special destinations. Whoever flies with me should say at the end: 'I learned a lot and it was an experience that will last.''''
My licenses and ratings include EASA teaching and examination authorizations, FAA teaching authorizations, CAA UK teaching authorizations, and a CASA Australia license.
As a PhD physicist and longtime owner and head of training at a flight school, I combine structured training with special experiences. The mix of technology, precision, freedom, and genuine moments is why I have been inspiring people with this exact feeling for decades.
On various tours, I have flown to many exciting destinations – some challenging from a piloting perspective, others for sightseeing or relaxation. Within Europe and worldwide. This also includes altiports, for which I am certified to train as a Mountain Instructor.
