Carlisle, Cumbria (North)

Agenda

On arrival you will have a short briefing by an experienced, professional flying instructor. Then it's time for the aircraft! You will be sat in the driving seat as the instructor conducts some pre-flight checks and taxis the plane to the runway for takeoff! Once airborne, you will be taught basic manoeuvres and controls, before being allowed to take complete command of the plane yourself. The aircraft is fitted with dual control so the instructor can assist whenever necessary. You will be flying a two seater Piper Tomahawk and the experience will last for approximately 30 minutes. Family and friends are welcome to come along and watch you fly and take some pictures.

Notes

Your voucher is valid for 10 months, for one person. When you book you must inform the centre if you are over 6'4” or 16 stone, as an extra charge may be necessary if a bigger plane is required. The minimum age is 12 years old: under 18s must have a parent/guardian with them on the day. It is essential that you become a temporary member of the air centre on the day - this is free of charge and ensures you are covered by the centre's insurance. All lessons are subject to availability and weather conditions on the day and so clients are advised to phone the morning of the lesson to check if it is safe to fly.
