Agenda: -

Upon arrival  you will be introduced to your instructor who will provide a briefing before the flight. You will discuss how the plane works, your route and the controls and instruments of the aircraft will be explained. You will be flying a 2 seater Cessna 152 or Cessna 140. It will then be time to step into the left hand seat (Captains' seat) of the cockpit. The instructor will be sat beside you, taxi the plane to the runway and take off. Once airborne you will be taught the basics of handling a light aircraft, and then complete control is passed over to you. After your flying lesson you can purchase a log book from the club where the flight time can be recorded and count toward the Private Pilot Course if you decide to pursue a career or hobby as a pilot.  The lesson will last for an hour.
