Fly up, up and away in a light aircraft with your first flying lesson
This fantastic flying opportunity allows you to learn the basic skills required to fly a light aircraft. Your lesson will be taken by a qualified instructor who will discuss and demonstrate the principles and controls of the plane. Your instructor will take off and once in the air will practically demonstrate before handing control of the two seater aircraft to you. Enjoy the amazing views as you soar high above the ground and view the landscape from a brilliant perspective.
On arrival to the flight training centre you will be greeted by your own pilot who will take you for your lesson. Firstly, there will be a short one to one briefing where the instructor will discuss and demonstrate the principles of flight and the controls of the plane. You will also plan the route that you will take during your flight. Then its time to jump into the driving seat, after your instructor has taken off and run through the controls of the cockpit and guided you through basic manoeuvres you are in complete control (under close dual control supervision) of the aircraft.
