From Curiosity to Commitment
If you’ve already experienced a Discovery Flight, the Advanced Discovery Flight is your chance to go deeper. You’ll spend more time at the controls, explore real-world flight maneuvers, and experience what professional flight training is really like.

Real World Training Situations
With a certified instructor at your side, you’ll practice advanced maneuvers, navigation, and real-world scenarios. This session bridges the gap between an introductory flight and the first steps of formal pilot training, giving you a clear picture of the journey ahead.
The Path Toward Your License
