Discovery Flights

Ever dreamed of becoming a pilot—or simply wondered what it feels like to sit at the controls of an aircraft? A Discovery Flight with Central Florida Flight Club is the perfect way to experience the excitement of aviation firsthand. From the moment you arrive at the airport, you’ll be welcomed by one of our certified flight instructors who will walk you through the basics of flight. After a short pre-flight briefing, you’ll climb into the cockpit, taxi to the runway, and feel the thrill as the plane lifts off—with you at the controls.
