Take the controls
Our airliner simulator experience puts you in the flight deck of a modern commercial aircraft and lets you discover what it feels like to fly from the pilot’s seat. From engine start and taxi to take-off, approach and landing, every stage is brought to life through immersive virtual reality, physical motion, tactile feedback and spatial audio.
Feel the aircraft
High-resolution virtual reality, physical motion, tactile feedback and spatial audio work together to create a remarkably convincing flight deck experience.
High-Resolution Visuals
High-resolution virtual reality places you inside the flight deck, with the aircraft controls, instruments and outside world surrounding you. Look around naturally and experience the cockpit from the pilot’s perspective.
Physical Motion
Feel the aircraft respond beneath you. Motion and tactile feedback recreate the sensations of taxiing, acceleration, rotation, turns, turbulence, touchdown and braking as your flight unfolds.
Spatial Audio
Hear the aircraft around you. Engine start, changes in thrust, aircraft systems, aerodynamic noise and other flight deck sounds surround you and respond as the aircraft moves through each stage of flight.

We start by getting to know you and what you'd like to try during the session. Not sure what to choose? We'll help tailor the experience to you.
Before putting on a headset, we'll talk through how the experience works and what to expect. You'll have plenty of opportunity to ask questions and we'll agree how you'd like to approach the session.
Settle into the flight deck and we'll carefully set up the virtual reality equipment, sound and motion around you.Â
We'll take the journey we've already designed — boarding through to landing — but it isn't a fixed programme. We can pause, repeat, or adapt the flight as we go, including location, weather, and level of challenge.
Afterwards, we'll talk through the experience, revisit anything you'd like to understand better and answer any remaining questions before you leave.

[5] Approach & Landing
Choose where you’d like to fly and get familiar with the aircraft, its controls and the flight ahead. No previous flying experience is necessary.
Bring the aircraft to life, prepare for departure and taxi towards the runway as the flight deck, engines and aircraft systems respond around you.
Line up on the runway, advance the thrust and take control. Feel the acceleration build before rotating and climbing away from the airport.
Fly the aircraft for yourself. Climb, turn and explore how a modern airliner responds to your inputs, with guidance available whenever you need it.
Bring the aircraft back towards the airport, line up with the runway and experience the challenge of landing a commercial airliner for yourself.
Your Flight. Your Controls
You’re in the pilot’s seat, but you won’t be left on your own. Guidance is available throughout, whether it’s your first time flying a simulator or you’re ready for more of a challenge.
