About the experience
Product ID: 12544
Experience the thrill of flying without leaving the ground in a state-of-the-art 737 simulator at Blackpool Airport! Take command of a Boeing 737-800NG passenger aircraft and discover the world of commercial piloting during an immersive 90-minute simulation session. Located in Hangar 8 at Blackpool Airport, this remarkable 737 simulator was developed by commercial airline pilots within one of the UK's top private and commercial flight training schools. It caters to everyone, from beginners to seasoned pilots with their own licenses. The simulator is designed to be as realistic as possible, using high-grade materials to replicate the acoustics of a real 737 cockpit. Although the simulator remains stationary, you'll feel the engine vibrations and hear authentic sounds, creating a fully immersive experience. The 220-degree wraparound screen displays breathtaking high-definition images, and the fully functional dials and buttons on the flight deck provide a true-to-life experience at the controls of the large jet. In a clever design feature, the simulator integrates two rows of cabin seats, enabling up to five friends and family members to join you as cabin passengers on your flight. Aviation enthusiasts will be captivated, and with Blackpool's famous seafront and beaches just a mile away, this adventure entertains everyone.

This was the best present that I have ever received. The whole experience is amazing and Tom, the instructor, was just brilliant providing an insight into the thought processes of an airline pilot, the multitasking involved and being ready for anything that may come from leftfield. Just an incredible experience Ill be going again and Ill be buying for my family.

A birthday present from my girlfriend and what an experience it was. I really did not believe how realistic it was, at one point in the flight when we banked hard to the left I had to convince my self we where still on the ground. Both pilots who helped me through the whole process where professional throughout and made it an experience I will never forget would gladly recommend to anyone. Thank you it was fantastic

My wife treat me to the experience of flying a 737 at Blackpool airport, and to be honest it was one of the best things I have ever done.My instructor was patient and very informative which made the experience even better, and I was immediately put in charge of flying the plane after an explanation of the controls and a briefing video. Make no mistake, this is exactly like the real thing.I flew to, and landed at, Manchester airport and then made a return flight back to land in Blackpool. Just great, apart from having to attempt a clean landing 4 times until I got it right.Although I put solo below, you can take along a couple or more people who sit behind you in the simulator.
