General Aviation
Bristol Airport is a general aviation (GA) centre. In 2006 the GA terminal was relocated from the north side next to the control tower, to a purpose-built facility on the south east corner of the field. There are two GA organisations based at Bristol. All GA handling for visiting aircraft is managed by Bristol Flying Centre, which also provides engineering services and operates a fleet of business jets trading as Centreline Air Charter. Bristol & Wessex Aeroplane Club provides pilot training on both fixed-wing aircraft and helicopters. Bristol Flying Centre also trade as Centreline Air Charter from the airport.

Famous quotes containing the word general:
“Suppose we think while we talk or write—I mean, as we normally do—we shall not in general say that we think quicker than we talk, but the thought seems not to be separate from the expression.”
