Discovery Flight Using a Redbird Full Motion Flight Simulator
Discovery Flight in a Redbird Full-Motion Simulator
Experience the thrill of flying — no aircraft required. Step into our FAA-approved Redbird MCX full-motion flight simulator and take the controls in a stunningly realistic cockpit that pitches, rolls, and responds just like a real airplane. It's the perfect introduction to aviation for curious first-timers, nervous flyers, and anyone who wants a low-cost, weather-proof taste of what it means to fly.
Guided by a certified instructor, you'll fly a realistic scenario over familiar scenery, practice takeoffs and landings, and learn the basics of how an airplane really works — all from the safety and comfort of the ground. It's also a brilliant first step before a real Discovery Flight or full pilot training.
