About the experience
Aspiring pilots, aeronautical enthusiasts and those who simply love the idea of flying a plane will adore this simulator experience for one – with a difference! At Coventry Airport, you’ll be given a choice of three simulators – the Aer Lingus, which was used to train Boeing 747 pilots, or opt for one of the motion simulators; choose either the Sabena Airlines, which was used to train crew, or the Airbus A320, a real aircraft with simulator built in! You’ll begin with a thirty-minute briefing, to cover aerodynamics, flight controls and the instruments you’ll be using throughout your flight, before picking a destination and taking to the sky (well, almost!). Whether you’d like to fly around Europe or take a closer look at Hong Kong from the sky, there’s a world of opportunity out there, and with ultra-realistic graphics and a real pilot by your side to instruct you, you’re going to have a smooth flight.
