From trial lessons to first solo, to your full PPL
PPL taster
Still not sure if flying is for you? How about trying five 1 hour lessons over a month? Build your skills and see if the flying bug bites! Start with a trial lesson: this could be the first of five 1 hour flights to build your basic skills.
Pre-flight briefing before each sortie covering safety issues & building your knowledge;
Briefing on ‘Principles of Flight’ – get to understand the forces acting upon an aeroplane;
You take control during each flight to build your skills in handling the aeroplane using primary and secondary controls;
Aims: To fly at a constant altitude and in a constant direction. To turn onto new headings, to climb and descend;
Post flight debrief at the end of each sortie, what went well and what needs more work;
Record each flight in your logbook; every hour of flight experience counts towards your PPL.
