Half Day Flight Simulator in Blackpool

Flying Experience Days: If you’ve ever wondered what it’s like to be a real airline pilot, this full-day flight simulator experience in Blackpool will provide an intensive introduction. Enter the replica cockpit of a Boeing 737-800NG and enjoy a ten-hour training session with a 737 Type Rated instructor.

The Boeing 737 is the world’s leading twin-engine short- to medium-range passenger aircraft, and the fixed simulator boasts a variety of features that would be instantly recognizable to real Boeing pilots. These include a steel and aluminium structure, authentic instruments and chronometers, dual-linked yokes, a tiller wheel, and rudder pedals.

Wraparound HD monitors offer incredible lifelike visuals, and there’s a realistic aft section with seats for family and friends. During the full-day experience, your instructor will guide you through all the controls and explain exactly how a flight is conducted. You’ll learn to program flights, conduct pre-flight checks, start the engines, taxi, and take off.

While in the air, you’ll practice maintaining headings, altitude, and pitch, while following a variety of authentic procedures, such as advanced instrument navigation, air emergencies, and difficult approaches and landings, including heavy crosswind and single-engine landings.

Once you’ve gained confidence, you’ll command an entire route between the airports of your choice before enjoying a final two hours of dry hire time to further hone your skills.

Chocks away! The half-day flight simulator experience in Blackpool would make a unique gift for aspiring pilots and aeronautical enthusiasts. Surprise your aircraft captain with an Experience Days voucher today!
