About the experience

Get to grips with this beast of a helicopter with this Sim Session in the heart of Suffolk. Unlike other sims, this one is modelled on a real life Westland Lynx helicopter used by the Army Air Corps. This particular model (its registration number is XZ195 Lynx if you’re curious) was built in 1978 and used in the Northern Ireland troubles. What’s unique about this simulator is that you get to witness a slice of this recent aviation history, whilst learning how to master moves as you choose from a range of flight conditions and airports to take off from and land. All alongside an expert instructor who will be offering you advice throughout the duration of your session, you’ll be able to master this chopper before getting into the skies, if that's your eventual goal. Or, this sim session could be the perfect way to build up your flying hours after taking some time off. Whatever the reason you are drawn to this sim, what’s guaranteed is that you’ll have a realistic, informative and exciting experience all without leaving the comfort of the ground. As well as the hands on tuition, your pilot will also give you extra time to learn about aerodynamics and the theory behind helicopter flying before taking a seat in the cockpit. For a one in a lifetime opportunity to get up close and personal with an ex military aircraft and harness your flying skills, look no further.

    An interesting and informative session on the LYNX. A lot of patience shown by Kenneth whilst I tried to fly the helicopter. An enjoyable hour and would do again.
    Gavin Clark

    A F Howard

    Barry
    Excellent experience. Very competent and knowledgeable trainer, with a good sense of humour.
    Patrick McGuire
    This was my second simulator run this day (first being the 737) Kenneth the instructor and co- pilot is clearly keen on flying and simulators, something that struck a cord with me. Kenneth was very welcoming and the introduction to helicopter flying was ideal prior to starting the sim. The flight itself was excellent and I thoroughly enjoyed myself. Despite having flown Lynx in the Army in the air crewman role, it has been 20 years since I last flew a Lynx and it brought back many memories. Kenneth was great at giving advice and I would recommend him and his company to my family and friends! Thank you!
    Barry
