Discovery Flight - introductory flight lesson

The Discovery Flight is an introductory flight lesson for obtaining your pilots license. It is designed to show you that YOU can fly an airplane (with an experienced instructor at your side); an introduction to the flight training process that every Aviator began their aviation journey with. 

Your Discovery flight will start with a preflight briefing. Your instructor will explain exactly what you can expect on your first flight lesson.  He will review your aircraft, the area weather and the plan for your flight. After answering your questions, you and your instructor will complete a pre-flight inspection of your aircraft together, and then off you go.

NOW IT’S TIME TO FLY! From the pilot’s seat, you will perform the checklist, startup procedures and after a short demonstration, will taxi the aircraft to the runway. You will now contact ATC and receive your take off clearance. You will execute your first take off, and once airborne, you will do most of the flying; learning how to turn, climb, descend, and slow down/speed up: generally learning to “feel” the airplane. You will be surprised how easy it really is and how awesome it feels to be flying. After rejoining the pattern, you and your instructor will land the aircraft.

You will clear the runway and contact ground control to receive your taxiing instructions back to the ramp.  You will find your parking spot, shut down your engine and complete a post-flight debriefing with your instructor, and have your first instructional flight logged in your log book.  CONGRATULATIONS!

The Discovery Flight usually takes an hour or so to complete including the flight.
