Discovery Flights
“Every journey begins with a single step. Start your aviation journey with a Discovery Flight!”
If you’ve ever wondered what being a pilot is like, this is the experience for you!
On your Discovery Flight, you’ll meet with one of our professional and safety-minded Flight Instructors who will help you perform a preflight inspection on one of our aircraft. You’ll then embark on a 30-minute flight that will offer you the opportunity to take-off and handle the controls!
This is an ideal experience for those wanting to get a feel for what it's like to fly a small aircraft and see the beautiful Ozarks from a whole new vantage point. Allow us to give you your first opportunity to "Fly OZ"!
Discovery Flight certificates are nonrefundable and are valid for up to one year after purchase. If weather or other circumstances cause a flight to be postponed, we will work with you to find another opportunity to complete the flight.
