Have a taste of what it’s like to fly a Duchess Twin Engine plane!
Developed for the training of commercial pilots, this top of the range simulator is as close as you can get to flying a twin engine without years of training. Prepare for take off, get air traffic control clearance and open up the throttle all the way! An instructor is in the co pilot's seat to ensure that you can find your way around the mass of controls and bring the plane safely into land at the end of your session.

Your experience begins with a briefing from your instructor before climbing aboard the simulator. After a take of scenario you will have the opportunity to fly the plane in a variety of conditions including a simulated emergency. After attempting a controlled landing you will receive a certificate as a memento of your day. You will spend a full 30 minutes at the controls of the aircraft and will not have to share your flying time with other participants.
Upon purchasing this experience you will be issued with a voucher valid for ten months for one person. You are then free to contact the supplier to book your desired date. Not to be confused with other ‘shared' flights - this is 30 minutes solo at the controls of the plane. Minimum age for this experience is 16. Up to three spectators are welcome in the simulator, but a disclaimer must be signed for children aged between 8 and 16 (absolutely no children below the age of 8 are permitted in the simulator). No previous experience is necessary. Anyone under the influence of alcohol or drugs will be asked to leave the premises. You will need to present a valid passport or photocard driving license with you on the day. Failure will result in you being unable to participate in the experience. You may take up to three guests with you to sit in the simulator while you pilot the plane. Please note this experience is only available on weekdays.
