$145 for 90-Minute Introductory Flight Lesson and Experience ($320 Value)
FAA-certified flight instructors guide aspiring aviators through an introductory flight experience that begins with a private lesson in the Redbird FMX full-motion flight simulator. Students practice basic flight functions, such as level flight, climbs, and turns, before taking to the air in a Cessna 172R Skyhawk. The in-flight portion of the experience takes students soaring over the north or shore shore of Long Island to a practice area. Students also receive a first-flight certificate, an emailed commemorative photo, and a six-month magazine subscription.
