Had this experiwnce in April 2013. Christmas present. My girfriend thought she had booked a fully moving hydraulic simulator as the advert leads you to believe. Its a mock up cockpit with seats just sitting on floor. the cockpit instrumentation looks ok but the visuals are just 3 or 4 screens straight across not even wrapped around sides. So basically...

Received this as a birthday treat whilst it was on offer. Had never been in a flight simulator but had been wanting to try it out for sometime and it did not disappoint! Although, the time goes rather quickly, the pilot / instructor was friendly and informative, and flexible about options - so all in all a very enjoyable experience.... More

This is one of the best days out I have ever had in London, I live about a 2 and a half hour train and tube trip away, but it was deffinately worth the trip up there and was brilliant value for money. I only had the 30 minutes one, but even though you are only in it for 30... More

I poked this experience for my husband who is an avid flit simulator fan, has lots of experience flying small and light aircrafts but who couldn't justify the cost of a real simulator experience. This really is the next best thing but as long as you are aware it is a glorified flight sim experience then you won't be disappointed.... More

I had a 30 minute flying experience and would recommend this experience to any aviation enthusiast or just anyone that would like to know a bit more about what goes on in the cockpit of a commercial airliner. As someone who enjoys playing Microsoft Flight Simulator on my home PC it was interesting to have the added realism of having... More

We bought this experience for our 14 year old son who enjoys his PC flight simulator game. We were asked to arrive 10 minutes early, which we did. we then had to wait 20 minutes for our slot. We had booked 30 minutes, but I would say he had less than 20 minutes flying and it was so boring. No... More

1 hour Boeing flight experience…. I would avoid this experience at all costs. I was given this experience as a gift but unfortunately I was away in Australia at the time of purchase It was something of a welcome home/Christmas present. My mother booked it and it has to be said she is not massively au fait with small print,... More

Understandably we can only accommodate people who are in the country at the time of validity of the voucher. Due to the explained circumstances, an extension was offered with at least three options for you to do the experience, but in addition to calling after the suggested booking period given by the seller, on this occasion we were unable to...

Myself and my brother both did a 30 minute experience. The instructor was speaking so quietly I couldn't hear a thing so whenever I did what I thought he said, or asked him to repeat what he said he looked at me as if I as stupid. EVEN WORSE with my brother! He has never flown any sort of simulator... More

The majority of our customers have had no previous flying experience. All of our fully qualified pilots have a large amount of experience dealing with customers that have little or no experience and have been selected to work at iPilot because they display the patience and ability to explain in detail all of the questions that can be asked by...

I took the full course for the 'Virtual Type Rating'. The staff were fantastic, the instructors are excellent. As someone who uses Microsoft Flight Simulator, I was already familiar with the controls of the 737, and therefore didn't need much introduction to them. Therefore I was able to concentrate on the actual flying and practicing my landings. My instructors were... More
