Have you ever wondered what it's like to fly an airplane? A Discovery Flight is the perfect introduction to aviation and an exciting first step toward earning your pilot certificate.

During your flight, you'll meet with your flight instructor for a brief introduction to the aircraft, basic flight controls, and what to expect during the lesson. Once you're in the air, you'll have the opportunity to take the controls and experience the thrill of flying under the guidance of a certificated flight instructor. No previous flight experience is required.

Whether you're considering flight training, checking an item off your bucket list, or looking for a unique gift, a Discovery Flight offers a safe, fun, and unforgettable experience while giving you a realistic look at what becoming a pilot is all about.
