  • Feel the adrenalin rush as you take the controls of a light plane and soar across the sky! This Virgin Experience Day introductory flying lesson will never be forgotten.

    There are more than 40 flying lesson locations to chose from around the country, so you won't have to travel too far to experience this incredible day out.

    Your flying lesson starts with a briefing from your instructor before the flight, covering safety and an introduction to some of the controls.

    Once in the plane, you will be given headphones so that you can hear conversations between your instructor and air traffic control, and so that you can talk with your instructor. And when you get in the air, you'll be able to take over the controls - though your pilot will generally land the plane and taxi back. You should allow an hour for the whole experience. The flight will last approximately 25-30 minutes.
