I was overwhelmed with the knowledge that our instructor Mak had on all the controls. The VR was so realistic that I truly believed that it would feel like flying a real plane. Although I have never played video games, the instructor said I really got the hang off it, which was a real achievement.

I was very impressed with the amount I learnt during this experience! We got to learn what all the controls do, the VR simulation itself is very realistic. I now understand what it takes to be a pilot!

It was great fun and gives just a small glimpse of how complicated it is to fly a commercial flight. The signage for the location could be a bit better as we turned up early and did not know where we needed to go.
