Flight Simulation Experience Days: Jump aboard a real Boeing 747 for the ultimate flight simulator experience, perfect for anyone looking to try their hand at piloting their own aircraft in a realistic environment. 

The experience will begin with a friendly brief with an instructor before heading for the aircraft itself. They'll be in control of the aircraft for 20 minutes, which allows time for 3 landing attempts at an airport of their choosing, meaning they'll be able to experience a familiar environment in a very unfamiliar way! Or indeed, why not suggest they jump in the deep end and choose a completely unknown airport. It is recommended that guests arrive prepared with a few ideas of scenic locations to fly over before landing. Why not try the Las Vegas strip, go on a mini tour of London or even the Eiffel Tower! Even in 20 minutes there's plenty of flexibility and choice in this liberating experience. 

This extraordinary opportunity guarantees unforgettable thrills and an authentic taste of what it's like to be a true aviator, and is certainly a worthy gift for that adventurous soul in your life!
