Overview
Meet up with your FAA certified instructor and listen close as you receive practical on-the-ground instruction. Walk through a step-by-step preflight inspection to make sure your Cessna 172 is airworthy. Once preflight is complete, it’s time to buckle up and experience what it’s really like to fly an airplane.
Take control as your instructor helps you line up on the runway and guide the aircraft from the pavement up to the sky. The fun continues as you learn all of the different phases of flight and feel the unparalleled exhilaration and freedom of flying an airplane.
A great introduction for anyone who has considered flight training, this is the perfect opportunity to build your first hours towards getting your pilot license. From ground school to engine start up to soaring over Florida’s Gulf Coast, this is one experience you’ll never forget!
