Flying lesson in a vintage biplane in Bucharest

Try the emotions of your first biplane flying lesson. Discover the absolute freedom of being in control on the infinite sky.

Fly without a cockpit. With a leather helmet, retro glasses and the wind caressing your cheeks, you will relive the experience of the beginnings of aviation.

The flying lesson begins with a briefing from the pilot. You will learn how to control the plane and the effects of your actions during your first flight lesson. After this stage of your coaching it’s over, you will go through a complete tour of the aircraft in order to inspect the main control surfaces.

The instructor will take off, show you some basic maneuvers and then is your turn to prove that you are a great copilot. Now you feel the emotions of flight on your own skin.
