Carlisle, Cumbria (North)

Agenda: -

On arrival you will have a short briefing by an experienced, professional flying instructor. Then it's time for the aircraft! You will be sat in the ‘driving seat’ as the instructor conducts some pre-flight checks and taxis the plane to the runway for takeoff! Once airborne, you will be taught basic manoeuvres and controls, before being allowed to take complete command of the plane yourself. The aircraft is fitted with dual control so the instructor can assist whenever necessary. You will be flying a two seater Piper Tomahawk and the experience will last for approximately 30 minutes.

Notes: -

On purchasing this experience you will be issued with a voucher valid for 10 months, for one person. Once you have received this voucher you are free to call the training centre to book a lesson. When you book it is essential to inform the centre if you are over 6'4” or over 16 stone, as an extra charge may be necessary if a bigger plane is required. The minimum age for this experience is 12 years old. If the participant is under 18 a parent or guardian needs to join them on the day. Family and friends are welcome to come along and watch you fly and take some pictures. It is essential that you become a temporary member of the air centre on the day - this is free of charge and ensures you are covered by the centre's insurance. All lessons are subject to availability and weather conditions on the day and so clients are advised to phone the morning of the lesson to check if it is safe to fly.
