Discovery Flights

What will I do during a discovery flight?

You will learn a little about how to:

  1. Preflight an airplane before takeoff.
  2. Taxi to the runup area.
  3. Do some very basic maneuvers.  (You can actually fly the plane. If you are more comfortable just taking pictures, that's okay, too!)
  4. Join the pattern for landing.

What are some good resources?
