Land away flight lesson experience
My son aged 13 has said he would like to be a pilot for a few years and had a 1 hour Land Away Experience with Bristol and Wessex Aeroplane Club This is normally an experience for 2 people but in this case we asked if he could do all the flying His instructor Jonathan Cormack was fantastic He was very calm and explained clearly to my son how to control the plane and gave him plenty of opportunities to test his new-found skills with controlling it in the air as well as those all important take offs and landings The experience involves two take offs and landings - it can be at Bristol Airport and another hence the name Land Away but in our case all was on the main runway of Bristol Airport which in itself is pretty exhilarating As it was a 4 seater plane I sat in the rear along with my older son which was also an amazing experience even for someone who flies on passenger planes most weeks I can t fault the experience we are all still buzzing about it even over 2 weeks later and though it seems like a once in a lifetime experience it was so good that we ll be saving up for another go
