Common questions about discovery flights in Georgia
- How much does a discovery flight cost in Georgia?
- Across the 9 Georgia flight schools that publish a discovery flight price, the median is $180. Published prices run from $89 to $299. What the price buys varies: some include thirty minutes in the air, others an hour plus a ground briefing, so compare what each one includes as well as the figure.
- What is a discovery flight?
- A short first lesson in a training airplane with a flight instructor. You sit in the pilot's seat, and most schools let you take the controls once you are in the air. Schools also call it an intro flight or a demo flight.
- Does a discovery flight count toward a pilot certificate?
- It can. Time flown with a certificated flight instructor can be logged as dual instruction, which counts toward the private pilot certificate. Ask the school whether the instructor will sign your logbook for the flight.
- What should I ask before booking one?
- How long you will be in the air, as opposed to the whole visit; which airplane you will fly; whether a ground briefing is included; whether tax is added; any weight limit; and whether a friend or family member can ride along.
