Instructor and student in the cockpit of a Bristell

Take the controls.
See if flying is for you.

Reading about flight training helps. Sitting in the pilot's seat changes everything. Your discovery flight is about an hour on the ground with an instructor, then roughly 30 minutes flying a Bristell yourself.

What's included

This is a first lesson, not a sightseeing ride

Every minute is built to answer one question honestly: is this for you? You leave with real stick time, real answers, and a real plan.

Meet your instructor

Sit down with a working CFI, not a salesperson. Ask anything: cost, timelines, medicals, what the airlines want. Then tour the school and climb into the airplanes.

Preflight briefing

Learn how the flight will go, what the controls do and what you'll be doing with your own hands. Then walk the airplane with your instructor and do the preflight together.

Fly the airplane yourself

Once you're airborne, the controls are yours. Turns, climbs, descents, straight-and-level. Your instructor is right beside you in a dual-control cockpit the whole time.

Your personal training plan

Back on the ground, we map the fastest route to your goal, with an honest cost estimate. Want to keep going? Many students sign up for lessons the same day.

Discovery flight FAQ

Everything stays simple from here

No. Zero experience, no medical certificate, no studying. Your instructor handles everything you don't know yet, and you'll fly the airplane yourself for the parts you can.
Plan on about 90 minutes: roughly an hour on the ground meeting your instructor, touring the school and briefing, then about 30 minutes in the air.
Yes. Your discovery flight is logged as dual instruction with a certificated flight instructor, so the time counts toward the Sport or Private Pilot certificate if you continue.
After takeoff, you'll take the controls. You'll fly turns, climbs, descents and straight-and-level flight over the lakes around Sebring. Your instructor is beside you in a dual-control cockpit the entire flight.
Comfortable, weather-appropriate clothes and closed-toe shoes. Sunglasses and a hat are a good idea. Bring a photo ID and your questions.
If conditions aren't safe for your flight, we reschedule at no extra charge. Central Florida weather rarely grounds us for an entire day.
Absolutely. Friends and family are welcome to come along for the tour and briefing. The Bristell seats two, so your instructor flies with you, but your guest can watch the takeoff and landing from the ramp.
