Service d'exploitation de la formation aéronautique

The Service d'exploitation de la formation aéronautique was the French national flight school, located in nine places in France and managed by the direction générale de l'aviation civile . It merged with École nationale de l'aviation civile on January 1, 2011.
SEFA is a direct descendant of a long tradition of state involvement in helping to light aviation. By 1936, the Popular Front creates the "sections d’aviation populaire" , in order to democratize the flight training for young people and then to train more crew for the French military aviation. In 1946, the "service de l’aviation légère et sportive" is created, which purpose is essentially to provide available aircraft and flight instructor for flying clubs.
