Demo Flight

✈️ What to Expect on Your Demo Flight

A demo flight is the perfect way to experience what it’s really like to train as a pilot. It’s hands-on, immersive, and gives you a chance to check out the aircraft, instructors, and facilities here at Aces High Aviation.

Here’s what you’ll do during your demo:

  • Learn how to preflight the aircraft with your instructor

  • Get a quick intro to the primary flight instruments

  • Listen in on live air traffic control as you taxi to the runway

  • Once in the air, you’ll be guided through the basic flight controls

  • You’ll get as much control of the aircraft as your instructor feels you’re ready for

  • Fly out over the ocean towards the Long Beach harbor practice area

  • Try a few simple maneuvers before returning for landing at Long Beach Airport

The entire experience typically lasts around 1 hour and 45 minutes from start to finish.


This is more than just a flight — it’s your first real lesson and a true glimpse into what flight training is all about.
