Do I need any flying experience?
No. Your experienced pilot will explain the aircraft and brief you before the flight. This experience is designed as an introduction.
Will I get to learn the controls?
Yes. Your experienced pilot can explain what the aircraft controls do and how they are used during a flight. Ask about the instruments, listen to air traffic control, take photos with your camera or phone camera or simply enjoy the view.
