Your First Flight Toward Becoming a Pilot
If you've ever dreamed of becoming a pilot, a Discovery Flight is the perfect place to start. This is more than just a joyride—it’s a real, hands-on flying lesson designed for individuals who are considering flight training. Whether you're exploring a new career path or pursuing aviation as a personal goal, this experience will give you a clear, exciting introduction to what learning to fly is really like.
When you arrive, you’ll meet with a certified flight instructor who will take the time to answer your questions, explain the flight training process, and walk you through a preflight inspection of the training aircraft. You'll gain insight into how pilots prepare for flights, and you'll start to see aviation from the pilot’s perspective—even before takeoff.
Once in the air, the instructor will guide you through the basics of flying. You’ll take the controls, perform gentle maneuvers, and get a feel for how the airplane responds. Every moment of the flight is structured to give you a meaningful, educational experience. It’s not just a ride—it’s your first loggable flight lesson and the beginning of your training record if you choose to continue.
The flight typically lasts 30–60 minutes and is conducted one-on-one with your instructor. After landing, you’ll debrief together and have the opportunity to ask questions about next steps, training timelines, costs, and what to expect as a student pilot.
If you’re serious about learning to fly—whether for recreation or a professional career—this is where your journey begins. A Discovery Flight is your chance to test the waters, meet your
instructor, and experience the sky as more than just a passenger.
