• This is an amazing chance to have a go at flying a real 737 in a top of the range aircraft simulator. After a vital pre-flight briefing you'll be taken on board this exact replica of a 737 cockpit. Take the controls of this piece of equipment with friendly hands-on guidance from an experienced airline pilot who will sit alongside you to offer continual support. You'll taxi the plane to the runway and practise your first take off before familiarising yourself with the controls in-flight. You should have built up some confidence by then. Just as well because next it's time to turn the plane around and, under the expert encouragement of the instructor, have a go at a smooth landing (but what are a few bumps among friends?). This truly is an out of this world experience, even though you actually never leave the spot. It's an ideal introduction to the 737 and the ultimate experience for aviation enthusiasts! You can even take a couple of friends along for the ride.
