Discovery Flights are back!

Learning how to fly an airplane has never been easier or more fun than taking Discovery Flight lessons at Bakersfield Flying Club. Discovery Flight School familiarizes budding aviators to flying lessons by introducing them to instructors, airplanes and the exciting world of flying.

The Discovery Flight is designed to be a short inexpensive introduction to flying lessons that will give you the chance to meet our instructors, get familiar with the aircraft and airport environment, and experience the controls in flight.

Included in a Discovery Flight first flying lesson are the following:

  • 25 to 30 minute Discovery Flight with an FAA certified instructor
  • A concise introduction to the fundamentals of aviation
  • Review of the flight instruments and radios in one of our classrooms, then a preflight the airplane
  • Flight portion includes a take off,  climbs, descents, turns, airspeed control, and then return for a landing

Taking a Discovery Flight is the easiest and most affordable way to learn whether pursuing a career as a pilot or if earning your pilot’s license is something you really want to do. Schedule your Discovery Flight today! ($130 Fee applies, cash or check)
