Light Aircraft Trial Instructional Flight
Do you ever wonder what it would be like to fly? This light aircraft trial instructional flight could be your first step towards flight training. You’ll help the pilot take off from the airport and learn to fly the plane over Sydney’s western region. This training flight is your ticket to fly!
When you arrive at the airport you will meet your instructor who will take you and any spectators you have brought with you out to your aircraft. There will be plenty of opportunities for photos as your instructor gives you a detailed briefing, including preflight inspection and an explanation of aircraft controls and safety.
Now for the excitement! You’ll climb into the aircraft, the engine is started and your instructor will guide you in taking the aircraft out to the runway. After rolling onto the runway you will assist the pilot with take-off and once you are airborne, the pilot will hand the control over to you! This is your unique opportunity to experience flying an aircraft!
You will be flying under the watchful eye of a qualified instructor, over picturesque Western Sydney with views of the Blue Mountains, Burragorang Valley, Warragamba Dam and the historic Macarthur region along the way.
Upon return to the airport you’ll assist with the approach and landing (subject to other traffic and conditions) and taxi back to the hangar to meet your family and friends. There will be plenty of time for questions and more photos after your flight.
Whether you are a keen aviation enthusiast or are someone who has just happened to wonder what it’s like to fly, you’ll just love this light aircraft trial instructional flight. Come and get a taste of what many people only dream about doing!

I ordered and booked online and everything went very smoothly. The voucher arrived in the mail in time for Valentines day (which I was very happy about as I ordered it quite late). The booking for the flight was confirmed via email and all went ahead as per the time and date requested. And finally my husband loved the experience thoroughly enjoyed it. Thank you very much for making it so easy to book, it was a hassle free experience that I would certainly recommend to others : )
