Now, you can be the pilot of a single-engine, four-seat airplane, soaring over the Southern California landscape with an unbelievable view of the city and homes below. Best of all, there's no experience necessary!
While you're in the pilot's seat, a certified flight instructor will be guiding you every step of the way, from takeoff to landing. It's a memorable, exciting and fun experience. Plus, the time is FAA-logable as an actual flight lesson, if you bring a valid US passport or birth certificate. This adventure includes a pilot's logbook, "First Flight" certificate and souvenir photo.
Your hour-long experience includes pre-flight and post-flight briefings, and 30 or 60 minutes in the air.
