Take to the air under the tuition of your expert flying instructor with this 45 minute beginners flying lesson. You will have the freedom to manoeuvre as you steer the plane in mid-air.
What Your Experience Includes
The experience begins with a pre-flight briefing from your friendly instructor. The light aircraft's panels and controls will be introduced, as well as what your trial flying lesson will include before getting to see the aircraft from propeller to tail. Once in the cockpit your instructor will guide the plane through take-off whilst demonstrating some basic manoeuvres. Once souring through the air you will take control of the steering! The instructor is on hand to assist in this dual steering aeroplane, and will land the aircraft when the 45 minutes are up.
The 45 minute lesson includes take off and landing.
Group Size: It will be just you and the instructor.
