Experience the adrenaline rush of taking the controls of an airplane and soaring through the air over beautiful New Orleans!
Once in the air, you will take the controls and do the majority of the flying with your FAA certified flight instructor by your side every step of the way.
30 Minute Demo Flight is a basic introduction to flying in a Cessna 172. Your pilot will take you up to the skies and show you some of the basics of flight.
Flight Lessons are available in 40, 50, and 80-minute increments. 20 minutes of each lesson are dedicated to ground school. The rest of the time will be used for a hands-on flight in a Cessna 152.
The Fundamentals of Flying Course is perfect for those who are interested in getting a Private Pilot Rating but are unsure if it is definitely right for them. This package includes 3 Lessons. Each lesson consists of a 60-minute ground school followed by a 60 minute flight in a Cessna 172. Flight Maneuvers Handbook and First Flight Log are also included. The flight hours and ground school time acquired during the lessons can be applied towards the Private Pilot Rating if you decide to continue with training.

For this experience, our partners are taking added measures to help prevent the potential spread of COVID-19. They are disinfecting all air crafts before and after each flight. Additionally they are taking all participants' temperatures before they are permitting entrance to their facility. They additionally have implemented a "Hold Harmless" waiver that all guests must sign in order to participate. Due to COVID-19, participants will also be required to purchase or bring their own aviation headset, or purchase a mic-cover for a rental headset. Our partners kindly ask that all participants please bring and wear a mask for the duration of their experience. Participants will not be permitted to fly without a mask, and may purchase one for roughly $15.00 if necessary.
