Why do Pilot & Technical sessions start at 60 minutes?
These sessions are designed to give you time not only to fly, but to talk. Ask questions, explore the areas of aviation that interest you, and work through our simulator scenarios at your own pace.
If you're considering a career as a pilot, this is also a great opportunity to speak with an experienced instructor about training, routes into aviation, and what the job is really like.
The longer the session, the more time you'll have for questions, discussion, and additional simulator scenarios.
60 Minute Pilot & Technical Simulator Experience
A proper Pilot & Technical session with time for flying, simulator scenarios, and questions or discussion with your instructor.
90 Minute Pilot & Technical Simulator Experience
The same Pilot & Technical experience with an additional 30 minutes, giving more room for questions, discussion, and more of our available simulator scenarios.
120 Minute Pilot & Technical Simulator Experience
The same Pilot & Technical experience with the most time available. Ideal for in-depth aviation topics, extensive questions or career discussion, and completing more simulator scenarios.
Pilot & Technical sessions may be conducted by either a current/former Boeing pilot or our senior technical/head instructor. If you'd specifically like a current/former Boeing pilot, contact us after booking and we'll do our best to match your booking with pilot availability. Your date or time may need to change.
Cockpit Capacity & Guests
Where additional guest passes are selected, bookings can include up to 7 people in total. Max 5 in the cockpit at once; remaining guests sit in original Business Class seating. Guests can swap during the experience.
Physical Accessibility
Wheelchair ramp to hangar floor, cabin deck, and shop. Flight deck transition involves two small steps (~3 inches high each); transfer into pilot seats is essentially unaided.
Tailored & Customer-Led
Hosted by a current/former Boeing pilot or senior technical instructor. There is no fixed syllabus—your session can be shaped around simulator flying, procedures, aircraft systems, technical questions, aviation career discussion, or existing prepared simulator scenarios.
