YOUR FIRST LESSON

Fun Flying YOUR FIRST LESSON

About the Experience

Your familiarization flight, or what we refer to as your “fam flight” is your first chance to actually take control of an aircraft!
You will start by following along as your instructor does the preflight inspection and pre-takeoff checklists. Then, from the pilot’s seat, you will enjoy the pilot’s eye view of takeoff (or even perform the take-off yourself), monitoring all radio communications through your radio headset.
Just after takeoff, your instructor will let you take control of the aircraft. With guidance from your instructor, you alone will fly the plane for a 30-minute local flight, an experience you will always remember! When you return to the airport, your instructor will once again take control of the aircraft, bringing you in for a gentle landing.
After your fam flight, you and your instructor will discuss the flight and any questions you may have. Beyond just being the thrill of a lifetime, your flight will help you decide if flight training is for you. If it is, you’ll want to obtain a logbook and record your first 30-minute flight towards your pilot license!

    I feel so good having conquered the fear of spinning.. I am a little sorry that I didn't take up your offer to try and pull out of a full spin myself. However, I have taken huge strides. At least now I know what to expect so I'm 90% of the way there.

      Svetlana Kapanina is an excellent pilot. On Canada'a West Coast, ANNA SERBINENKO trains future private, mountain, and aerobatic pilots in British Columbia, Canada. If you are looking for the best instruction in these abilities, Anna is by far your best choice.

        Many thanks to all from my side, I really enjoyed time at CFC, the friendly service, the professional training and the warm and friendly atmosphere. I felt not as a customer, my feeling was more being a part of a nice family.

          Being from New Zealand I am wanting to convert my license to a Canadian one. I sat with the aerobatics instructor for an hour and a half and came out knowing every detail and process I needed to do to not only convert my license but also how to continue my flight training. Very informative.

            What a great place to learn to fly! Especially if you like aerobatics, or want to learn! Anna is a fantastic aerobatics pilot and instructor, and is well connected in the aviation community! I had the opportunity to spend a week doing aerobatics training with Anna in July 2014 and it was the most fun I've ever had!!! It is a true art!!!

              My family watched the video when we got back home the other day. You were amazing! The flight looked like it was so much fun! He was smiling like a little kid. He's still talking about it today lol.
