The Future Pilot
This is for the person who is reasonably certain he or she wants to pursue flight training, but just wants to be sure before committing too much time, money, or effort. You and one of our instructors spend a little time on the ground discussing the the basics of flying before going up for your first, albeit brief (30 to 40 minute) flight. Due to airport traffic congestion, this flight is not available at our Centennial Airport and Rocky Mountain Metro Airport locations. This flight can be scheduled at Western Air Flight Academy at KCFO.
$179
Front Range Experience
Don’t think you’re ready to pursue a pilots license? This flight is designed to change your mind! You and one of our instructors will go up for about an hour, exploring the benefits and beauty of flying a general aviation aircraft. Perhaps you’d like to poke around in the Rocky Mountain foothills, see downtown Denver from the air, or fly over your house… the choice is yours.
