Trial Flying Lesson for 1 person + observer – Glasgow International Airport (4 seat plane)

  • Take the controls of a 4-seat aircraft and experience the thrill of flying
  • Take one observer as a passenger in the rear of the plane
  • Receive expert tuition from your qualified instructor
  • Can be used as qualifying time towards your flying licence

Welcome aboard this amazing light aircraft trial flying lesson experience from Glasgow International Airport.

This experience allows you to experience the thrill of flying and actually pilot a light aircraft. After an initial safety briefing, your instructor will taxi the aeroplane and perform the take off, he will then demonstrate some of the basic manoeuvres and allow you to do as much or as little of the flying as you wish! All our aeroplanes are fitted with dual flying controls. This is a fantastic experience and certainly something you will remember.

Depending on air traffic control restrictions, you may fly around the Glasgow City perimeter or alternatively, head west towards Greenock before heading north to Loch Lomond. The aircraft’s panoramic windows allow you to view right around the world beneath you.

In the four seater airplane there is the opportunity for an observer to fly in the rear seat whilst you pilot the plane in the front. What better way to experience flying!
