Unforgettable experience with my bestie!! I piloted and she sat back. Just want to say I really love this experience K, thanks for the surprise. This is one of the best experiences I’ve ever had!
Much better experience than I got for the first time. Very easy to book. I flew in LIC, the airport is a little far away from my place. And it took me 10 min to find the aviation office after arriving the airport… But everything after went very well. Danny talked me through the entire flight, and some basics of flying. It took around 10 min, after that, I flew 52 min according to the record.
Great experience for sure, and the price is okay. I should have brought a friend next time. Not know it’s free till being there.
