Your experience starts with your feet firmly on the ground and a briefing about flying techniques and safety. Then climb aboard your luxurious 4-seat Cirrus SR22 with a fully-qualified Cirrus specialist instructor. You can then be confident you're piloting the 'sports cars' of the aeronautical world. Next, airplane rolling out of the hangar for your flight, during which time and at the pilot's discretion you can take the flight controls and experience the absolute joy of flying a plane. You can fly slow and low or high and fast. It’s up to you.
The feeling of control is brilliant, not to mention the breathtaking views... you'll never look at the sky or the earth in quite the same way again.

Reviews
"An unforgettable experience! We flew to Mykonos for lunch on Sunday and came back in the afternoon. I took the controls for some time. The weather was not good, it was raining at times and we were getting in and out of the clouds. However, we experienced absolutely no turbulence at any time. At Mykonos the rain had stopped. In winter the island is totally different than in the summer. Not that glamorous but so much more beautiful."

"The flight to Corfu was a delight; the views, the sky but above all the convenience. We flew under Instrument Flight Rules. I could not believe that we could possibly do Kerkyra–Athens– Kerkyra on the same day. Looking forward to doing this again with my wife."

"Kastelorizo was a true revelation. We both fell in love at first sight. We enjoyed the magnificent flight of the Aegean islands listening to the ipod music on the background and in 2 hours non-stop, we had reached our destination. We will do this again. Many Thanks."
