On arrival at the air center you will be introduced to your pilot who will instruct you throughout. You will have a pre-flight briefing for approximately 10 minutes where your instructor will explain what will happen during your flight and will answer any queries you have. Then your instructor will take you round the plane and make sure you're comfortable. Then it's time for takeoff! Once you are airborne there will be a quick run through of the controls and then you are in charge. After your flying experience your instructor will take over and land the plane. When you are safely on ground you will be issued with a certificate and given a log book so you can record your flight times and feel like a professional pilot.
