Flying Experience Days: Stop dreaming of flying and make it happen! During this fantastic hour-long experience, you'll take to the skies in a Cessna 150 - a simple and robust two-seater aircraft that is perfect for first-time flyers. Soar over the stunning Bristol and Somerset countryside to gain a unique birds-eye perspective of the area you know and love, and prepare for an adrenaline buzz that will last all day!

Upon arrival at Bristol Airport, you'll be greeted by your friendly instructor for the lesson. All instructors are highly trained pilots with a love of flying, so you'll be in safe and enthusiastic hands. Safety briefings out of the way, you'll climb into the cockpit where you'll be introduced to your aircraft for the lesson - the Cessna 150. Despite the initial shock of dials and levers, you'll soon be surprised at how simple the machine really is, and will begin to understand why the Cessna is one of the most popular planes world-wide for trial flying. Once you're buckled in, it will be time to hit the runway and head for the skies! Your pilot will execute the tricky take off and landing procedures, but then the controls are all yours. Experience the joy of soaring through the clouds as the world falls away beneath you, and feel a sense of freedom like no other.

Treat someone special to a once-in-a-lifetime experience gift, and let them realise their dream of flight. With lessons available every week of the year, learning to fly couldn't be easier...this lesson can even count towards PPL training - what could be better!
