History

HISTORY

The story of Omni Aviation begins with the eruption of Mt. Pinatubo in 1991 and the return to Clark Air Force Base to the Philippine government. The Bases Conversion Development Authority (BCDA) created the Clark Development Corporation (CDC) in 1992 to oversee the conversion and development of Clark Air Force Base. The CDC in turn offered long term leases to entice investors into Clark. Capt. Ben Hur Gomez had a vision of resurrecting the old Clark Aeroclub into the country's premier pilot school. Upon signing the lease contract with CDC, Capt. Gomez literally dug-up the old Aeroclub from the ashes of Mt. Pinatubo.

From a one plane-one pilot-one mechanic-one staff operation, Omni Aviation has grown over the years. We now own and operate fourteen aircraft, two Cessna 152s and two Cessna 172s. We continue to expand and upgrade our fleet, slowly but surely. Our staff has grown to a team of 30. Our student population has steadily grown and keep all our aircraft busy.

Omni Pagong

The Omni Pagong is the company mascot. "Pagong" is the Filipino word for turtle. Our turtle is inspired by the fable "The Hare and the Turtle". We get you where you want to go surely and safely.
