Is this at the "main" Buriram airport, or the new "Buriram Flying Club" airfield?

Ok, prices above refer to SRI RACHA (Bangpra Airport).

We're not talking about the main Buriram Airport, see details above and in the link as well, its a different airport, closer to the city, which may still not be licensed by DCA.

Prices Mr.Snooker (Buriram-Thai language only) adviced:
086-6300557

Diablo: 3000 Baht/Hour.

X-Air Ultralight: 3000 Baht/Hour.
