Brought my 12 year old son and his friend for his birthday and they had a fantastic time. Adrian was very knowledgeable and took time with the boys to explain the controls and give them a personal experience. Would recommend, even with one of the boys having a broken arm!

Absolutely outstanding experience. Adam was fantastic, highly knowledgeable and adapted the support really naturally throughout. I can't recommend this highly enough, it's an essential experience for budding pilots or aviation enthusiasts alike.

Had an amazing 1 hour experience on the 737 with Nigel Rigg. Never been more sure of what I want to do it in life.

Just got my university offers for Aerospace Engineering with pilot studies.

Aleksander visited Manchester Flight Sim centre in February 2025 to celebrate his 12th birthday.

He is a keen flying enthusiast and his 2 hour session in the Airbus A320 gave him the opportunity to fully appraciate how magnificent the aircraft is.

We must have made a big impression on him as he bought, out of his pocket money savings, a Thrustmaster Airbus edition Joystick to use with his home sim setup.

Keep up the good work Aleksander !

Amazing experience for my son who received it as a present. He is absolutely obsessed with planes and wants to be a pilot. Adrian was amazing and had him flying and landing in a number of differant locations. My sons already saving so go back

Bought the 90-minute flight sim for the Boeing 737 for my 12 year old son. He absolutely loved his experience. Adrian guided my son through the instructions calmly and clearly. We were both very impressed by how much he got to do within the time frame.

February 2025

Fantastic Experience. The instructor Adam had amazing knowledge & was able to adapt the experience based on my sons flying experience using Microsoft flight simulator. This meant a better more catered individual experience to enable my son to have a really great hour long session, that was ideal for him. Thanks Adam!

Absolutely amazing. First time sat in a cockpit myself. The instructor was very helpful and explained everything. I went with the 737 and it felt super real. Managed to fly takeoff from LaGuardia and land at JFK, takeoff from Man and land at Liverpool, landed at Innsbruck VFR and low visibility following instruments, did kai-tak too. All in an hour! Amazing, definitely recommend this one. Can’t rate this any better!

Had a really great experience at the Manchester Flight Sim Centre. I did a 60min session on the 737 and then a taster session on the Airbus 320. Adrian was a great instructor with amazing knowledge of the planes and how to fly them. It was my first time in a simulator so he covered the basics but also kept on adding more and more during the session. It was a lot to take in but a really great experience and I'm looking forward to coming back to improve my skills. The next session is already booked! Thanks Adrian and the team :)

I did a 90 minute flight simulator experience in the Boeing 737. It was incredible, very realistic and with excellent, friendly tuition and guidance from the Manchester Flight Sim Centre staff. I can recommend to anyone who is interested in aviation and also if you are looking to find someone a wonderful gift experience.

Flew the 737. Great fun even though there was a nose down trim error which made it more difficult to fly. In a way, this added to the experience. Will definitely be back in the future

The whole experience was fabulous Adrian the instructor explained everything from start to finish. It was bought as a gift for my wife who wants to rebook again.

Thanks to Adam and Adrian for looking after my son Harry today. He took the 1 hr session in the Airbus, followed by the 737 taster session. Harry has Flight Sim 2020 at home and is a full-on aviation enthusiast. The guys pitched his whole experience at exactly the right level for him. He learned loads and was made to feel comfortable and able to show off his skills at the same time. The genuine 737 cockpit is really impressive and may even sway his allegiance away from Airbus! A really enjoyable and welcoming experience and he will definitely be back.

A great morning at Manchester Flight Sim Centre.
Friendly staff, a great set up and detailed instruction. My 14 year old son very much enjoyed his first experience and the staff are very willing to tailor the simulator time to suit the interests of the
customer. Great to see the Boing 737 available now too.

My son was booked in for his flight simulator experience yesterday on both the A320 and the 737, he was smiling from ear to ear when it was finished, he loved every second. The pilot instructor explained everything to him and also took the time to recommend you tube videos to watch based on my sons keen interest in becoming a pilot. We will definitely be back and would recommend the experience!
