Saturday classes have been changed. The Saturday Classes will now start on May 21, 2011.
Have you ever wondered what it’s like to fly a plane? Attend Flying’sCool! and see!
The Roudenbush Community center in Westford, MA is sponsoring Flying’sCool! classes May 17 – June 18 (See Schedule below). You’ll experience the thrill of flight in the comfort of a classroom without your feet ever having to leave the ground.
Each student gets hands-on experience using a state of the art flight simulator with life-like controls, flying a variety of aircraft. See what it’s like to take off, navigate to another airport and land, and whatever you want to do in between. While exploring the world, you’ll learn:
- How planes fly and how to control them
- How to navigate (in a realistic, recognizable environment, find your street!)
- Basic Aerobatics
- About weather and its affect on flying
- An introduction to interacting with air traffic control
- Multi-player functionality in Microsoft Flight Simulator
- But mostly your job will be to have fun flying!
Each session consists of 5 1-hour classes, with 10 minutes of instruction, and the rest of the class with the students flying in the flight simulator*.
Class size is limited, so sign up today!
*Actual flight time per student will depend on the number of students in the class. Each class has two simulators, and class size will typically be 4 – 6 students. Students not flying will have other activities available while they wait.
