Only genuine training simulators give you a real airline experience.
Simulator experiences are widely available nowadays. Un-certified ‘entertainment simulators’ can be fun - but they cost a fraction of a genuine Airbus or Boeing simulator and won’t feel like the real aircraft.
VA Airline Training is an ‘Approved Training Organisation’ (ATO) regulated by the UK Civil Aviation Authority and EASA to deliver airline pilot training
We own and operate new multi-million-pound simulators, officially licensed by Airbus and Boeing
Our simulators are used to deliver safety-critical airline pilot training, so they need to feel and respond like the real aircraft in every way, with properly-weighted controls and accurate aircraft systems
As the only ATO in the UK offering experiences for the public, when you book a Flight Simulator Experience with VA Airline Training you know you’re getting the real thing
Why book your simulator experience with VA?
-
Fly with the professionals.
No previous flying experience is necessary! Modern airliners are designed to be easy to fly, and you'll have an experienced airline pilot as your own personal instructor. Your instructor is there to provide hands-on guidance and make sure you get the maximum possible enjoyment from your simulator flight. It all starts with a pre-flight briefing in 'ground school', before you enter the simulator and strap yourself in at the controls.
-
Feel the power.
Imagine yourself on the flight deck… one hand on the controls, the other on the thrust levers, bumping over the runway lights as you taxi into the take-off position. Feel the immense power pushing you into your seat as your jet airliner tears down the runway, and the adrenaline rush as you raise the nose and lift your huge aircraft into the air. Take one last glance at the ground falling away beneath you as you cut through the clouds into the clear blue sky above.
-
A world of possibilities.
Perform as many take-offs and landings as possible, or fly a real-world route in real time - the choice is yours. You could take-off from Paris at night, island hop in the Caribbean, or try a tricky approach into Innsbruck in a snowstorm. And maybe some turbulence or an engine failure to see if you really can stay calm under pressure? It's up to you. You're the Captain and it can be as thrilling and challenging as you want.
