This 30 minute flying lesson is a great way to discover the thrill of flight. Upon arriving at the airport you will be introduced to your flight instructor for the day. Your instructor will familiarise you to the cockpit controls and give you a routine safety briefing, before you are led out onto the apron and climb into the aeroplane. Your flight will take place in a Cessna 152 - a two-seat aeroplane. The supplier also runs a PA28 Cherokee - a larger four-seat aeroplane which is available for a supplement, subject to availability on the day of your flight. If you choose the PA28 Cherokee you are encouraged to bring one friend along to sit in the back of the aircraft to observe the flight. You are free to participate as much or as little as you wish. Typical tasks you could perform include: Engine starting; Checklist Drills; Aircraft Taxiing; Takeoff; Cruise; Turns and Descent. Where your flight takes you is up to the individual. Particular favourites are Liverpool City Centre, North Wales Coast, Liverpool and Everton Football Grounds, Wirral Peninsular, Chester City Centre or maybe your own house!
