Our new batch of students began flying a couple of weeks ago at our Larnaca base, marking an exciting milestone in their aviation journey. If you’re about to take your first flight lesson, you’re likely feeling a mix of excitement and nerves, and that's completely normal! Here’s what you can expect during this exhilarating experience.

1. Pre-flight Briefing

Before you take to the skies, your instructor will walk you through the basics of the aircraft, safety protocols, and what to expect during your lesson. This is a great time to ask any questions you may have about the flight and how it will unfold.

2. Getting Comfortable in the Cockpit

As you step into the aircraft, you’ll be introduced to the cockpit controls and instruments. Don't worry if it seems overwhelming at first , your instructor will guide you step by step, showing you the key elements you'll need to operate during your lesson.

3. Take-off and First Maneuvers

Once you're airborne, you’ll experience the thrill of takeoff and begin practicing basic flight maneuvers. Your instructor will allow you to take the controls, giving you the chance to feel the aircraft respond to your inputs. It’s a truly unforgettable experience!

4. Calm and Focus

The first lesson is often about building confidence and getting used to the sensation of flying. You’ll be flying under the supervision of your instructor, who will ensure everything goes smoothly and guide you through each step.

5. Post-flight Debrief

After you land, your instructor will review the lesson with you, offering feedback and discussing what went well and what can be improved. This is a crucial part of your learning process as it helps you refine your skills for the next lesson.

Remember, every pilot’s journey starts with that first lesson. Whether you're flying for fun or aiming for a career in aviation, you’ll soon find that each flight brings new challenges and triumphs. Enjoy the ride ,you’re on your way to becoming a pilot!
