Will you be Captain of a Boeing or an Airbus when you board the flight simulator near Liverpool? It's time to learn what life is like as a Boeing 737 or Airbus A320 pilot. Time to get the Aviator shades on
- you're in the hot seat! Your journey to Ellesmere Port where these simulators are based will be an easy one from Liverpool Manchester Chester & beyond as it's just a short drive from the M53. On arrival you'll head straight to the check-in desk. But this time it's not you checking in as a passenger you're the captain! Walk up the ramp & turn left & for Airbus A320 turn right & you're in the Boeing 737. Which one you choose is up to you & can be discussed at the time of booking in your flight sim day with the Ellesmere team. The first thing that'll strike you is how utterly realistic the interior is. That's because it is a genuine aircraft cabin with the little oval windows & the working overhead lockers. There are even two rows of authentic airline seats all of wh...

Get as close as you can to flying the real thing on this 737 simulator in Glasgow! Based at a renowned flight training school & flying club at Glasgow International Airport in Paisley this fixed base simulator offers all would-be commercial pilots the chance to head up the flight crew of a Boeing 737. Of course you know it's not the real thing but it's still pretty realistic. & we have to say way cheaper than an actual 737. This sim is based on the Boeing 737-800 ' Next Generation' series of commercial jets. To charter an actual one for just an hour would cost you around £8 500. To buy one for yourself would be in excess of $96 million
- & then you'd need a licence to fly it. You're much better off with this simulated version. In the real world a 737-800 would have fully equipped galleys seating up to 189 passengers & all the modern avionics systems to make flying these big tin cans in the sky a dream. What you'll soon find out as a novice is that it's not as easy as it m...

Are you ready to do your pre-flight checks in this professional-standard flight simulator in Harrogate? This 737 simulator in North Yorkshire is the real deal (or as near as it can be for a simulator!) with full hydraulic motion so that means you'll definitely feel that bump as you take off & land! From the moment you step into this flight sim centre in Harrogate you're immersed in the aviation world. The 30 minute pre-flight briefing takes place in a room kitted out like the inside of a Boeing 737 airline complete with passenger doors & windows. The actual cockpit of this airline flight simulator is identical to an actual 737 right down to the headsets oxygen masks checklists & lifejackets
- not that there'll be much need for those in Harrogate. Offering hydraulic motion is the key to the ultimate realism of this sim. Feel the rush of acceleration as you apply the throttle experience in-flight turbulence & feel the disruption a tricky cross-wind on your final approach can cause. But by far the most popular scenario for visitors to this Harrogate simulator is the low-visibility landing. Imagine having to bring your 737 full of passengers safely down when you hit a tropical storm or become engulfed in fog? It'll take nerves of steel handling such tense situations in the sim so imagine what it's like in real life. & if low visibility doesn't light your aviator fire then how about a rejected take off where you have to slam the brakes on before getting airborne? Or maybe you want to see just how an airliner can keep flying despite engine failure at 35 000ft? Then there's that flying challenge of doing a 'go around' to have another 'go' at lining the jumbo up & getting her landed. As well as the sheer delight of being at the helm of this impressive pro simulator don't be surprised if you find yourself next to a very very experienced co-pilot. That's because the instructors on this flight simulator in Harrogate include commercial 737 & 747 ex-Red Arrows display & commercial airline trainer examiner pilots. That's really quite a roster & each & every one of them has enough anecdotes & stories to write a novel about their time in the skies. Enjoy your virtual flight!

Book your slot on the flight simulator in Peterborough & get virtually airborne in a Boeing 737-800W! With 15 30 & 60 minute experiences available we think anyone who fancies being a Boeing pilot will love these sessions. This jet sim school is located a few miles south west of Peterborough. The sim is fixed-base & is a replica of a the modern Boeing 737 airliner. The flight deck is very realistic & the array of screens displays buttons & levers is mind-boggling & shows just how much aviation has advanced since the days of dials & toggles. Indeed this sim will teach you how to make the most of the 737-800's automatic flight features & offers a very accurate insight into what it is like to be at the helm of one of those great hulks of metal. All 75 tonnes of it. But before you can get down to the serious of business of sim flying a sector there's the small matter of taking off to deal with. As you climb into the cockpit the engines on the Boeing will already be fired up & turning with the plane positioned ready on the runway. That means you can get straight down to the business of getting airborne & that's exactly what you'll be doing with the assistance of your co-pilot here in Peterborough. A Taster session is the perfect choice for those who want short but very sweet flavour of life as a pilot. During your 15mins of airborne time you'll be at the controls enabling you to fly straight in at the deep end & tackle something exciting like the skyscrapers of Hong Kong as you fly right past high-rise apartment windows! Once those on the 30 mins session have reached around 10 000ft (that's pretty much two miles high in case you were wondering!) you can start to initiate circuits. With each pass your instructor sitting beside you will give you more controls to master & manipulate. As your flight duration comes to an end it's time to get vectored in for your final approach to land
- that's to say when air traffic control gives you your traffic pattern & tells you your route. If you enrol on any of the extended flight simulator courses at this Peterborough jet sim school you'll have loads of flying time. That means you can fly trying a full sector in real time practice the most hair-raising landing ever on the IGS 13 approach at Kai Tak airport or even throw in some curveballs to test your captaincy skills such as bad weather or try flying to minimums. The great thing about this flight sim in Peterborough is that it is suitable for all whether you're a home flight sim enthusiast a private pilot's licence holder or even a qualified airline first officer!

The world really is your oyster with over 24 000 flight destinations on offer at this flight simulator in Warwickshire! Most of us have been on a big commercial jet at some point but rather than flicking through the duty free catalogue & paying over the top for a lukewarm coffee on this flight you will be up front in the flight deck! Hidden deep in the Warwickshire countryside there's no indication from the outside of this building that you will be tackling perhaps a lightning storm over New York or bringing the plane in to land with one engine down. Of course none of these scenarios are real but it does indeed all feel very real. As you pull the curtain back to step up into the cockpit it's all dimmed lights dials gauges levers & screens just as you'd expect. If you've never flown before you won't know where to start with it all but that's where your pilot instructor comes in with the tips & help. What's more this Warwickshire simulator team has flown more flights than we've had hot dinners with everyone from British Airways to Cathay Pacific but in essence it's you in charge. Unlike real flying lessons the start up taxiing & shut down doesn't eat into your total flying time here in Warwickshire so the time"ed is the time you will actually spend in the simulator in the air from take off to landing. Now that's what we call value for money! We are offering a variety of flight times to satisfy all budding airliner pilots. You can choose whichever route or routes you like with some of the most popular requests including taking off from London Heathrow & cruising over the capital tackling the infamous (and now closed) Kai Tak airport at Hong Kong & swooping in over the snowcapped mountains of Innsbruck or Geneva. What we love about this flight simulator in Warwickshire is the set up. The ground crew will be on hand to assist & get you ready for your flight on the day as well as looking after any friends & family who come along to watch as you handle the Boeing 737 big boy. They can even check out what's happening in the cockpit on a large screen in the reception area (no pressure then!). ...
