  • Learn to fly in a Cessna 172 under the careful guidance of a FAA certified flight instructor
  • Join your instructor in the preflight inspection of the plane and then take the controls for a memorable flight
  • A great introduction to flying for anyone who has considered flight training
  • No experience necessary

This learn to fly a Cessna experience in New Jersey is a wonderful gift for anyone who has a desire to fly!

When you arrive for your flight, a FAA Certified Flight Instructor will escort you to your plane and demonstrate the pre-flight inspection where the fuel, oil, and airplane are inspected to determine airworthiness.

The whole idea of this introductory flight lesson is to get the participant to do as much as possible. This lesson is not to be confused with an "airplane ride" where one passively watches someone else do the work.

After the pre-flight inspection, it's time to hop in the pilot's seat and take the controls. Your certified instructor will be sitting next to you, guiding you through the motions, but you'll do most of the flying.

During this flight lesson, you will experience all different aspects of flight, have a great time, and learn enough to decide whether you want to continue learning to fly and pursue a pilots license.
