Yesterday was special. It was Jakhari’s 18th birthday. His Dad had arranged a big surprise for him here at the airport – an Introductory Flight.

He had no idea why he was at the airport. But when he found out…

What is an Introductory Flight

An Introductory Flight is first flight. It is an introduction to flying for someone who has never flown before.
On this crisp, cool winter day, Jakhari went flying with Bob. Before the flight, Bob showed Jakhari how to pre-flight the airplane. The pre-flight check is an organized way to check out your airplane and make sure it is ready for flight.

During the flight, Jakari learned how to fly “straight and level,” turn the airplane, climb and descend. It is a great way to introduce a young person to the world of aviation.
