You’re the pilot of an airliner and you're fast approaching one of the world's major airports. With 200 passengers on board your skills and expertise are really put to the test. Your hands grip the control column. Can you do it? Can you land? These simulators are used to train professional pilots - so they are astonishingly realistic. Forget amusement arcade games and PC simulators, these simulators replicate the sensations of flying to extraordinary degrees of accuracy. Your simulator will move and sound like a real plane; you'll see the runway lights, feel the bumps as you land, and hear the roar as you put the engines into reverse thrust. This is an amazing experience for anyone with an interest in flying.
Your adventure will begin with a pre-flight briefing so you can familiarise yourself with the controls; everything inside the simulator is just as it is in a real aircraft. You'll share an hour's flying session with two other people - during which you will take the controls for 40 minutes. Get ready to test your nerve by taking off, cruising and landing your aircraft!
