Airplane trial flight - fly yourself

With the airplane taster flight offer, you can fly an airplane yourself and even take off and land. Are you interested in flying and always try to catch a glimpse of the cockpit when boarding an airliner? On the airplane taster flights in Switzerland, you are the pilot yourself and take a seat in the captain's seat. After a theoretical introduction and an explanation of the instruments in the plane, you'll take off and taxi onto the runway. Together with your flight instructor, you will master the take-off, various flight maneuvers and the landing. You won't forget this airplane trial flight in a hurry. If you are interested in training to become a pilot, your instructor will be happy to provide you with information about the costs and duration until you obtain your pilot's license. Of course, you can also book an airplane trial flight just for fun. If you would like to give an airplane trial flight as a gift, we offer attractive vouchers.

The preflight briefing with the flight instructor was very informative and demonstrated the extensive preparation required for a flight. Weather conditions, loading/refueling the aircraft (in compliance with the stability conditions), destination airport and alternative airports, flight paths and much more was clearly explained. We then went through the checklists together.
The flight itself was extremely exciting. Controlling the aircraft, including a few practice turns, maintaining altitude and heading and also the effects of the wind made it a unique experience for me - in glorious weather, of course.
The flight instructor created a climate of trust with calm and care, so that I felt totally at ease during the entire flight. He answered all my questions, explained everything clearly and did a great job!
I can highly recommend it!

It was incredible!
I can only recommend everyone to do a trial flight once in their life. Christian is a great instructor and explained everything really well. I will definitely be back.

I was a little nervous at first, but from the moment I shook Mr. Sutter's hand, that feeling disappeared. I found the support very good, pleasant, and open. The program, including the briefing and the subsequent flight, was well organized and designed. It was an incredible experience to pilot a DA-40; I was pleasantly surprised by how much I was able to do myself! For me, this experience was incredible from start to finish! A memory I will treasure forever!
