Double-Length Discovery Flight

Experience what it’s like to be a pilot with our double-length discovery flight, designed for individuals who want more than just a ride—this is your first real lesson in aviation!

Your adventure begins with a brief ground school session, where your instructor will cover the basics of aerodynamics, aircraft controls, and weather considerations for the day.
Next, you’ll head to the aircraft to assist with the pre-flight inspection, taxi the airplane, and even perform the takeoff under the close guidance of your instructor.

Once airborne, you’ll have up to 60 minutes of flight time, giving you the opportunity to fly further and explore more of New England while learning fundamental piloting skills.
After landing, you’ll receive a personalized debriefing, and your very first flight time will be officially recorded in a digital or physical logbook.

Includes:

  • Up to 2 hours of your instructor’s dedicated time

  • Up to 1 hour of airplane time (tracked by the aircraft’s Hobbs meter)

Whether you’re considering flight training or just looking for a one-of-a-kind experience, this discovery flight gives you a true taste of aviation.
