If you've ever wanted to be a pilot or dreamed about flying a commercial airliner then this is your chance!
Its time to take command of your own B737-800, the world's most popular Jet airliner flying today. Spend 30 minutes at the control of our 737 flight simulator, located in Surfers Paradise on the Gold Coast. You will fly the jet liner over a scenic airport of your choice sitting in the captain’s chair in front of a true-to-life scale flight simulator. Sitting next to you will be your flight instructor, an experienced pilot, whose job it is to ensure you have an exciting and realistic experience.
On arrival at our 737 flight simulator you will attend a short, detailed briefing. Afterwards you will advance the throttle and bring the enormous simulated jet engines to full thrust! You can choose from one of the 22,000 worldwide airport locations to depart from. You have full control of many of the systems on board the 737 jet liner, and all at the touch of a finger from inside the cockpit!
On final approach to your airport you will gently bring the jetliner back to the ground, ending your journey.
