Basic Discovery Flight

The excitement begins with a 15-20 minute ground lesson in which you learn the basics of flight controls and instruments. This brief lesson prepares you for 30-45 minutes in flight! You'll start the engine, taxi the airplane out to the runway, takeoff, climb, cruise, turn and descend around the airport.

Even during approach and landing, you're at the controls the entire time, safely guided by an FAA-certificated flight instructor who is also at a duplicate set of controls. For an additional $75, you can share your adventure with a guest. 

The flight instructor is on hand to answer any questions about the process of learning to fly, and assist in taking lots of photos of your adventure.
