Yes you can!

You can also share your time with them if you would like to. Or just make them watch. Up to you!

Vulcan – one in jump seat in the cockpit, although it is pretty tight anyway!  … plus viewing room which fits approx. 4-5.

737 – 12 seats available in addition to the cockpit. 

Shoreham

737 – 5 in total 1 in the jump seat and 4 mock cabin.

Yes!

Our cockpits have been custom designed and made (by us!) to ensure that they are as close to the real thing as we can get.

We have had professional 737 pilots AND Ex Vulcan Pilots try and test our simulators and both have given the thumbs up for authenticity and as close to realism as possible! 

A Fixed Base simulator doesn’t move but …

You know when you are sat in on train and the train next to you moves away … but you think you are moving?

We take advantage of this visual trick to give you a sense of movement using reprographics and the engine / cabin noise.

There is no reason why you should not be able to use the controls.

If you can travel on an aeroplane without issues you won’t have a problem getting in and out of the 737 cockpit.

The Vulcan cockpit is a tight squeeze, please keep this in mind if you have any issues with movement.

We have instructors that are as tall as 6’5″ and they can operate both simulators without a problem.

The Vulcan by its nature is a small cockpit.

Most of our Instructors are over 6′ and at 6’5″.

As our instructors  can use the simulator comfortably, you will be fine.

With 24,000 airports to choose from,  as long as the flight could happen in real-time (i.e. within a the allotted time) then the route is down to you!

For instance, London to New York isn’t going to work! But popular flights include: London, Midlands or Manchester Airports to Paris, Amsterdam or Jersey. LA to San Francisco, Nice to Innsbruck, Gibraltar to Madeira and thousands more!

We can offer anything from the old Hong Kong approach to other difficult/interesting ones like Maderia – Innsbruck.

Yes there is a place you can sit but it is quite tight! Don’t expect comfort, Vulcans weren’t built for that!

Yes!

Your experience can be split between you and a friend.

Do keep in mind that if you have a shorter experience (30 mins for example) you both may not have time to accomplish all that you want to.

We would suggested a shared experience of 60 mins or more will be more enjoyable for you both.

You get a whole 60 minutes in the simulator.

We allow additional time to every booking.

This is “briefing” time when you can discuss with your Instructor what you wish to achieve during your session.

Absolutely.

You will find that our instructors are either professional pilots, present / ex RAF or have completed our professional simulator instructor course.

We can not accommodate specific requests for instructors.

Being professional pilots their main job in aviation will take precedence over their instructing work with us.

You will be assigned an instructor based on their availability. Each and every person that instructs with us will have had hundreds, maybe thousands of hours in the simulator and will be able to offer you an enjoyable time with a lot of knowledge to share.

In the 10 years we have been offering flight simulator experiences, we have never found ourselves in the situation where a customer has been unable to do the experience.

We do not offer a monetary return but would happily allow you to gift the experience to someone else who may be with you on the day.

Malfunctions, poor weather, diversions … we can offer all of these challenges and many more!

Discuss anything you want to do with your Instructor in your briefing.

You can also tell Ops when you book in and we will do our very best to facilitate.

We ask that you double check with your doctor but there is no reason why you would not be able to.

If you are able to travel on a normal aeroplane then you would be able to undertake our experience.
