Taste the sky, feel the wind rush through your hair with a trial flight. Enjoy either a 30 minute or 60minute flight of absolute bliss.
A Trial Introductory Flight (TIF) is if you are uncertain about learning to fly, or if you just want to get airborne to “feel what it is like†before you commence training, it is an air experience flight; a way of sampling flight training without making any commitment to joining the school.
The objective of the TIF is to give you a good and fair sampling of what flying feels like, plus an insight into the flight training process. It is a once off experience; all subsequent flights are on an Approved Syllabus with training toward achieving objectives.
A trial flight includes a brief with an instructor. They will talk through effects of controls, the aerodynamics involved in flight, answer any questions you may have. Next they will walk you through a pre-flight of the plane, explaining the various parts of the plane and how they are controlled. Now you are ready for your flight! Either a 30min lesson or 60min depending on your choice. During the trial flight your instructor may give you control of the flight too! So be ready to take charge! Once on the ground we will finish with a de-brief. This is your chance to ask any questions and see how you can make your dreams come true! You will be presented with a gift certificate for your flight and an experience of an lifetime!
