Take flight in our Cessna 172 flight simulator, equipped with the latest avionics technology.
Experience the precision of our Cessna 172 simulator, designed to represent our Cessna aircraft. With fine-tuned controls and high-quality visuals, it immerses you in realistic flight scenarios - including technical malfunctions and varied weather conditions.
The Cessna 172 "Skyhawk" is the gold standard in pilot training - renowned for its stability and intuitive design. Our simulator replicates the real aircraft in detail, delivering an authentic and rewarding flight experience for aspiring pilots.
While flying over scenic Goodwood is a popular start, you can also mix things up - perhaps a night flight over London with a landing at Heathrow, or even try landing on an aircraft carrier. It’s fun, challenging and something you couldn’t do in the real aircraft.
Flying training at Goodwood began in 1940 with Hurricanes and Spitfires. RAF Westhampnett later hosted the first US 8th Air Force sorties. Nestled in the South Downs, it remains a vibrant centre of aviation, where passion and purpose continue to take flight.
The simulator is available throughout the year. Please telephone the Flying School Operations Team on 01243 755066 to book the date and time of your flight simulator session.
Your experience lasts 45 minutes. Please arrive 15 minutes before your start time to check in.
For special requests, or party hire, please contact the Flying School team on 01243 755066, who will be happy to assist and arrange longer simulator sessions
Comfort is definitely the order of the day. Please wear flat, comfortable shoes that you would usually wear when flying.
