Always wanted to fly a plane? Read all the flight books and websites? Tired of flight simulators? Need to feel the roar and vibration of the engine, the control of the yoke and movements from the pedals.
Here's an adventure at Skypark Airport in Subang which offers the dreamer of flight an opportunity to take hold of the flight controls under a watchful eye of an experienced and friendly pilot instructor. No experience is needed.
You can sign up for a course to become a fully licensed pilot after the discovery program if you haven't shaken off the flying bug!
