Trial Flights

A trial flight is a fantastic way to experience what flying is all about.

With one of our professional flight instructors at your side, you will actually get to pilot either one of our Slings or one of our Cessna 152 Aerobats.

During your flight you will learn the basics of taxiing, take-off and how to keep straight and level during flight. What’s more, if you decide to continue training, you can log your trial flight in your pilot’s logbook.

Experience Aerobatics

If it’s the thrill of the loops and barrel rolls you’re chasing, our flight instructors can help with that, too. Aerobatics experiences are available on our 45-minute and one-hour Cessna flights.

Trial flights are available now as a gift voucher, through our online store.

Cessna 152 Brief History

The Cessna 152 is a popular American-built, two-seat aviation aircraft featuring a fixed tricycle undercarriage. Introduced in 1977, the Cessna 152 was developed as an updated version of the highly successful Cessna 150. It has long been a preferred choice for flight training, recreational flying, and private aviation.

Today, the Cessna 152 continues to serve in flying schools and private fleets around the world. Its reputation for reliability, forgiving flight characteristics, and durability has ensured its place as one of the most respected training aircraft ever produced.
