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.

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!

The Aero Club were very efficient and had everything organized upon my arrival. My flight in the Cessna 152 was capped off with some good weather, a great Instructor and the landing was one where the aircraft could be used again. Thoroughly recommend it to anyone.
