    Had a simulator experience bought for me as a birthday present by my wife. This was the perfect gift for me as I love anything to do with aircraft and have done since I was a child. Unfortunately, my dream of becoming a real life pilot was dashed at an early age, as I am colourblind. Having this opportunity was a dream come true. Mak my instructor is a lovely guy and he made the experience run really smoothly. I went with the intention that I would be flying between 2 different airports in 2 different countries, but Mak said that probably wasn’t the best option as it would restrict the overall experience and taking off from different airports and doing a circuit at each, would enable me to get a better idea of what the aircraft is like to fly and would give me more to do during the experience. I was able to choose which airports I could fly from and we tried different scenarios, so I was able to see what the aircraft felt like in different situations, using both the instruments to fly as well as flying by line of sight and what happens when you engage the auto pilot, or try changing course just using the rudder rather than the ailerons. We then experienced the sudden failure of an engine and Mak guided me through what needed to be done to counteract the loss of thrust on one side of the aircraft. Mak then threw another spanner in the works and we lost the other engine and had to glide the plane in to land at our chosen airport, which luckily had 3 different runways to choose from. This was all very exciting and the time literally flew by. I would throughly recommend this experience to anyone that has an interest in flying. You will not be disappointed. Thank you Mak I had a great time.

    I had a fantastic 75 minute flying experience here, with Keith as my instructor. The whole thing was so much fun, and instructive too, with some great choices of destinations to fly into. I might have clipped a few buildings on the way into Innsbruck, but Keith remained calm throughout! Highly recommended!

    It was excellent, a really enjoyable experience. Keith the instructor made the whole flight experience well worthwhile. Certainly makes you want to book again.

    I purchased a flight simulator experience as part of a birthday celebration. My instructor on the day was Richard, who gave me a quick overview of the experience and before I knew it I was in the captains seat taking off from Gatwick Airport landing at London Luton. I then had two successful touch and go’s into Chek Lap Kok Int Airport and Tai Tak Int Airport, avoiding the buildings for the latter. Bit of a disaster at Macau ain’t Airport with an initial landing on the grass! It was an amazing experience and Richard was very knowledgeable and patient giving me LOTS of tips on the flight deck. I can highly recommend this to anyone, you don’t have to be an Aviation Geek to take part and I will definitely do it again!

    Had a 2 1/2 hour experience with Mak, what a legend! Highly knowledgable, informative, yet allowed me the freedom to fly wherever I wanted & to try anything out. I even did a solo circuit at Nice Cote D’Azur. Really enjoyed and will be back, thanks again Mak.

    Amazing experience ‘flying’ from start to finish. The instructor Richard was brilliant - warm and funny - and made the whole thing super memorable. Taking off and landing at Gatwick, Luton, Salzburg and Innsbruck plus the taxiing made 75 minutes absolutely evaporate. Can’t recommend this highly enough!

    Very immersive experience and my host Richard was skilled, supportive and entertaining. Highly recommended.

    Just took a 60-minute virtual flight with Virtual Aerospace located right by Brighton City airport (just a 10-minute taxi ride from Shoreham-by-Sea that's 1 hour by direct train from London) Instructor Mak was very friendly, knowledgeable and patient with a complete beginner like me. The cockpit was a replica of Boeing 737 cabin, it felt very real. I didn't have any prior experience with any flight simulators and the actual experience was way better than I expected (yet I never thought flying an airplane would be so difficult, seriously it doesn't compare to any computer games). Lots of fun and highly recommended for an exciting day out!
