Future Flyers Course - Full-Motion 737 (Ages 12–18)
If you, or your child is considering a career in aviation, preparation is key. This course was designed for young people between the ages of 12-18 to take advantage of and fly a professional-grade training device to really understand what it is like to be in the aviation industry, and to prepare each student as much as possible for applications, assessments and more.
The course consists of 4 hours in the simulator and 1 hour of ground-school, totalling 5 hours of intense, but rewarding learning.
If you, your child, or someone you know is seriously considering entering the aviation industry in any role, this course is designed for them.
Course Outline
Flying Training
You'll learn instrument flying, how to fly the jet in poor conditions, set up and track VOR/NDB beacons, fly vectors to an ILS, and learn how to fly an RNAV approach meeting airline standards. This will all be conducted over "real" airline sectors, for example Gatwick -> Amsterdam -> Gatwick, giving you a real insight into a day as a pilot.
Preparation is Key
Why Join Our Future Flyers Course?
Full-Motion
Airline pilots train with motion because it teaches feel, rotation, flare, sink rate, and how the aircraft’s energy shifts when you add or reduce thrust. That’s why your Virtual Type Rating runs on our full-motion 6DOF 737-800NG rather than a static platform, and why would you settle for less?
Expert Tuition
Fully instructor-led, we coach you step-by-step with no prior experience required, and we will match your pace and goals. We teach real scenarios to generate real confidence, whether you step forward into an airline pilot career, or you just want to level-up your flying abilities.
Our instructors are all qualified pilots, and some are even qualified Type Rating Instructors and Type Rating Examiners for major airlines flying the 737 and 737MAX types.
The Real Experience
Our simulators flightdeck comes from a real aircraft. You are not just sat in a mock-up of a 737, you are truly experiencing what it is like to fly one of these big jets, in seats used by thousands of real pilots before you. The only true comparison you could have to flying this simulator, is flying the real aircraft.
For Parents
When your enter the aviation industry, the learning and training process is fast, intense and sometimes overwhelming. Giving a child the opportunity to experience something similar in a more relaxed environment is crucial to help them decide if it is the right career for them. Upon completion of your flight training, airlines will assess you in one of their own simulators, so by booking onto our Future Flyers Course, you are already helping your child prepare for that future interview and assessment.
