educational flights for high schools:
Ignite your high school students' passion with immersive flight simulator experiences!
Our educational flight simulations provide hands-on learning opportunities while encouraging critical thinking, problem-solving, and teamwork. Imagine your students collaborating to navigate challenging weather conditions or troubleshooting mechanical issues in a virtual cockpit. Beyond the thrill of flight, they’ll also gain valuable insights into aviation careers.
The experience begins in our departures lounge, where students find their “flight” time on the departure board -setting the stage for pilot immersion. From there, they move to their simulator gate. While waiting for their session, students enjoy engaging videos on flight controls and aircraft history before a briefing from one of our expert instructors, joined by a current pilot offering career advice and answering questions about pathways into aviation.
Each student will then take the controls, mastering take-off and landing at their assigned destination. Schools can choose to run the workshop with one, two, or three simulators depending on group size and structure:
- A shared simulator experience, where students collaborate, compete, and work together towards the “Pilot of the Day” award.
- Sessions can run across multiple simulators in parallel, ensuring smaller groups and increased hands-on experience for each student.
For groups of up to fifteen students, we offer two workshop options:
Half-Day Workshop – £675.00
A focused session built around a specific topic. Each student enjoys 30 minutes of guaranteed flying time, supported by guided learning throughout, finishing with a landing competition.
Full-Day Workshop – £1,200.00
A more in-depth experience with extended simulator time, interactive activities, and detailed exploration of aviation topics. Each student is guaranteed 60 minutes of flying time, making this the ideal choice for a comprehensive learning day.
At the end of every workshop, one student is crowned “Pilot of the Day” and awarded a complimentary 60-minute simulator session to enjoy at a later date.
Enhance your aviation experience with the unique opportunity to learn from a seasoned professional.
Every workshop includes a session with a current commercial pilot, giving students a rare chance to hear first-hand what life in aviation is really like. The pilot will answer questions, share career advice, and talk about their real-world experience flying the Airbus A320 and Boeing 737 and Bell Jet Ranger Helicopter. It’s an inspiring way to engage the next generation of pilots and aviation enthusiasts, offering direct access to professional insight and guidance.
