The Experience

Learn to fly a biplane on this 30 minute flying lesson.

You will be accompanied by a certified flight instructor who will give you the opportunity to operate the controls and maneuver the airplane as they communicate with you via two way radio. The experience is based on your previous experience and skill level (no previous experience is required) but the primary focus is about you having fun and making the most of your flying experience.

Don't forget to take in the views of the landscape below.

Vital Information

The maximum weight of participants is 300 pounds. The seat in the plane is adjustable in height. Please arrive at the airport no later than 15 minutes before your scheduled flight time. If you have a flight logbook the instructor will make an entry in it to document your experience.

The Weather

There are a number of reasons your flying lesson may be cancelled due to the weather. You will not be taken up on a day where you will not be thrilled with your flight or if it is unsafe to fly. The pilot has the authority to cancel, change, or shorten a flight due to weather or other variables. If the flight is cancelled due to inclement weather we will gladly reschedule your flight for the next best date.  

Session Length

The lesson will last for 30 minutes. We expect you to be at the venue for around 1 hour.

Numbers

This voucher is valid for one person to learn to fly a biplane. Aircrafts seat the pilot plus one passenger at a time.

Spectators

Spectators are more than welcome to come and watch. Anyone attending will be able to view the aircraft taking off and landing as well as some of the flying, depending on the nature of the ride and how far we are venturing out for the day.  Chairs are available for anyone who is waiting at the hangar area and there is a climate controlled lounge area at the airport office with restroom facilities and snack machines.  Also there will be photo opportunities before and after the flight with the aircraft so don't forget your camera.

What To Wear

It is always a good idea to bring a jacket.  It really depends on the season of the year however and the weather for the day.  During the summer months a short sleeve shirt is comfortable, but most other times it is best to wear a jacket to be comfortable.  Some may also prefer to wear some light gloves. Comfortable shoes such as sneakers make climbing in and out much easier than high heels also! And also wearing sun glasses is helpful to protect your eyes from the wind and of course, the sun!  You will be provided with a cloth helmet with earphones to wear during the flight so no additional headgear is required.
