Hands on Trial Flight - 30 Minutes
Live your dream and feel the exhilaration as you take the controls and experience flight from the pilot seat.
In a Cessna 152, with an expert Instructor beside you, you will taxi out to the runway, pilot the aircraft during take off and actually fly -wow!
This is not just a joy flight - this is considered your very first lesson! Your Airline Pilot in a 747 started the same way.
It all begins with your pre-flight briefing. Your Instructor will explain the aircraft controls, and outline the fundamentals of piloting a light aircraft. You will taxi the aircraft out onto the runway, pilot it during take off and fly!
Your Trial Introductory Flight is your very first entry into your Pilot Log Book if you choose to continue to fly – so it could well be the start of a life long love – or even a career. This is an experience not to be missed.

Aside from the experience being absolutely fantastic, all the people at the Aero Club were very friendly and obliging.

My instructor was very friendly and explained everything to me in a way that I understood. The experience of flying an aircraft and seeing landmarks from up in the air was very exciting. I have wanted to be a pilot for a long time and this has made me more certain than ever that this is the career for me.

Very efficient. Great staff. Awesome experience :)
-
The whole experience was very positive. My young pilot was very skilled and filled with enthusiasm about his profession, explaining as we moved through the flight all of the necessary procedures. I would certainly recommend this to any person interested in learning how to fly or having one of these excellent experiences..
-
Fantastic experience great 40th Birthday present
-
My instructer, Paul was amazing. he knew that i was a little bit scared and was very assuring. I felt comfortable and had a great time. I would highly recommend this experience!
-
It was an excellent day and I can't wait to do it again
-
Great experience.Instructor Karl Kunze was just brilliant, very informative, very relaxed but still very professional.
-
The instructor was ace, totally calming, not judgemental although I was a klutz and she was brilliant
-
I thought that I would just be sitting their as a passenger ,but to take the controls was fantastic , I had a ball! I would recommend this experience to everyone
-
The freedom of actually sitting in the pilot seat with a hands on roll was exhilarating, Kalr my instructor is a very confident Pilot which made me feel at ease for my first trial flight.
-
Was Great... Good instructor made it Great
-
This was a great experience that I would recommend to everyone however in my particular case my stomach did not share my great experience of the rollover. From the beginning the instructor Steve Jones was very good and went out of his way to make this a great learning experience. I enjoyed being mostly in control of the takeoff and most of the flight and on a scale of 1-10 the instructor was about 20.
-
The trial flight was fantastic and although at the beginning I was more interested in just going for a scenic flight rather than taking the controls, by the end of the flight I was hooked... and have now added "get my pilot licence" to my bucket list!
-
A wonderful experience. A breeze to organise and made interesting by a very friendly and informative instructor.
-
A great experience that I will remember for ever!
-
Thank-you to Aaron for a fantastic experience. His professionalism and enthusiasm is a credit to the Aero-Nautical profession.
