Pilots are highly respected professionals that exude sophistication and confidence; we've all stared in awe as they purposefully stride through airports ready to to perform a job we can only dream of. It may cost upwards of six figures to become a qualified commercial airline pilot, but you can experience 'a day in the life' with an Experience Days gift voucher!

During this experience you'll learn basic light aircraft controls, functions, and how to check the plane, as well as devising a flight plan with your instructor. Now for the fun part... Time to fly! Following your carefully curated route, the pilot will execute take off before handing you the controls and acting as navigator, talking you through every stage of the flight. At the destination airfield you'll be able to treat yourself to a well-deserved cup of tea and bacon sandwich, before taking off again for the return journey. Back at Coventry Airport you'll have time to chat with professional pilots about what it takes to gain a private licence, then visit the Control Tower to better understand the impressive logistics of running an airport, before receiving your commemorative certificate - to say this experience is a jam-packed day would be an understatement!

The Pilot Experience Day in Coventry counts towards a licence, so a gift voucher would make a fantastic present for anyone interested in training to become a pilot. Go on and give it a go with Experience Days!
