Take a Discovery Flight and feel the thrill

A Discovery Flight is an affordable, no-commitment introduction to flying. You do not sit back and watch — you take the controls, with a Certified Flight Instructor beside you every step of the way. Introductory flights start at just $65, and it is the perfect way to find out first-hand whether learning to fly is right for you.

What to expect

Your Discovery Flight, step by step

  1. Meet your instructor

    We start on the ground with a walk-around of the aircraft and a plain-English preview of what the flight will feel like. Bring your questions — and your camera.

  2. Take the controls

    Once you are airborne over the Salt Lake Valley, your instructor hands you the controls. This is low-pressure, hands-on flying — your chance to feel the freedom and wonder of the pilot’s seat.

  3. Talk about what’s next

    Back on the ground we walk through what training looks like for you — the path to a certificate, realistic timelines, and honest costs. No pressure, no sales script.
