Einzigartig! Man übernimmt 90% des Fluges
Gemeinsam mit einem Piloten findet man sich 5 Minuten nach Ankunft im Cockpit einer kleinen Maschine wieder und dann heißt es: Du übernimmst 90% dieses Fluges inklusive Start und Landung. - vollkommen ohne Vorerfahrung. Der Flug macht sehr viel Spaß und bei gutem Wetter kann man wunderbar entlang der Küste fliegen! Der Pilot war äußerst nett und ich habe mich zu jedem Zeitpunkt sicher gefühlt. Absolut empfehlenswert und sicherlich auch ein super Geschenk!

Fabulous experience for a 16th birthday
This was such a unique experience, my daughter was thrilled to be flying a plane before she has even driven a car. The pilot was great, talked her through everything and made her feel comfortable. He was 30mins late, but they communicated this with us (technical issues) and we weren't in a rush so this didn't affect us. Would definitely recommend this to anyone.

Tolle Erfahrung - wenn der Magen es mitmacht
Ein mal das Steuer übernehmen, ohne Vorerfahrung- Das war ein tolles Erlebnis. Los ging es in einer 2-sitzigen Maschine, der PIlot stellte sich vor, erklärte kurz die Steuerung und startete. Sobald man oben in der Luft auf Höhe war, durfte man selbst übernehmen. Sehr anspruchsvoll, aber spannend. Leider war es recht windig und das Flugzeug war recht wackelig, entsprechend wurde mir schnell übel und ich überließ den Pilot wieder das Steuer übernehmen, er landete uns dann sicher. Wäre mir nicht übel geworden, hätte ich auch länger fliegen können. Zum Abschluss gab es noch Fotos mit dem Flugzeug. P/L ist echt top

Großartiges Flugerlebnis
Mainland Air bietet mit dem Trial Flight eine außergewöhnliche Flugerfahrung, die alle meine Erwartungen übertroffen hat. Die Flugzeit von 20 Minuten wurde äußerst intensiv genutzt. Aufgrund des regnerischen Wetters flogen wir nicht bis zur Küste, sondern kreisten um den Flugplatz (Dunedin International Airport). Wir flogen zwei touch-and-go Landungen und zwei enge 360°-Kurven in Schräglage. Ich habe mich mit meinem Co-Piloten Ruben jederzeit sicher gefühlt. Er hat sehr ruhig und verständlich die Anleitungen gegeben, damit ich die Flugmanöver ausführen konnte, ohne dass ich zuvor Flugerfahrung hatte. Insgesamt bekommt man bei diesem Angebot sehr viel für sein Geld geboten.
