Main Description
Your flight will start with you getting to know your aircraft. After your briefing (which doesn't count towards your flight time) your instructor will take you through the pre start up inspection of the aircraft before you're strapped into the pilots seat.
Listen carefully as your instructor talks you through engine start up and the rules and technique in taxiing. He'll guide the craft into the sky and the next thing you know you're in the sky for the unmistakable, irreplaceable experience of flying!
When up to 2-3000 feet in the air you'll get the chance to actually control the aircraft! How amazing - actually being in control as two human beings soar way above the earth. Reach dizzying heights and learn how to steer this awesome flying machine. Toward the end hand control back over to the pilot for an exhilarating low-level experience down Australia's most beautiful stretch of golden coast. Now that's an experience!
This experience voucher is valid for 12 months from date of purchase.

RedBalloon is a great service. I have already recommended RedBallon to friends and family. Purchasing gifts, receiving confirmations and communication between myself and the RedBalloon team was terrific. A fantastic company to do business with. The Flying company staff were fantastic. My husband want's to go flying again. I will definitely be using the website again.
