Voucher / booking

As in a large airliner, the take-off preparations are carried out according to a fixed pattern with the checklist. As soon as all the systems have been checked, you'll start your trial flight and take to the skies. You'll be surprised how much you can control the plane yourself and even land it with a little help from your instructor.
