Hello, I'd like to purchase a lesson as a gift for my partner, but I'm unsure if this option would be the right choice given her previous flying experience. She trained with the RAF air cadets and has flown Cessnas a few times, so she is already fairly comfortable with planes. Would this type of lesson suit or is there a better option?

My understanding regarding experience required for our flight lesson experiences is that the instructors will act on a discretionary basis on how much control to give the trainee on the day. I would advise therefore that this experience would be appropriate for your partner as her previous experience will likely mean that she gets more out of it than somebody whose never seen a cockpit before. 

With regards to alternate, more suitable experiences, I can see that we offer options for longer flights with the same supplier.

Please see our 1 hour; https://www.experiencedays.co.uk/four-seater-flying-lesson-in-glasgow-1-hour

and 90 minute; https://www.experiencedays.co.uk/90-minute-four-seater-flying-lesson-in-glasgow

options for the same experience. Generally the longer flights give for more opportunity to undertake a wider range of manoeuvres as there is more time for their confidence to grow. So this could be something to consider.

Can the Four Seater Flying Lesson in Glasgow (30 Mins) be 60 mins instead of 30 at extra cost of course?

There is a 60 minute option for the Four Seater Flying Lesson in Glasgow. Please see the link below:
