Hands-On Scenic Flight Full Bay TourLearn How To Fly With A Discovery Flying Lesson Over The Stunning San Francisco Bay 6 Reviews
Price for 2 participants
This flight allows you to both take the controls to experience what it feels like to fly a light aircraft and to enjoy the stunning aerial views of the San Francisco Bay! You will take off from the South Bay and, depending on conditions and air traffic control, your aircraft will either fly up the Pacific Coast from Half Moon Bay or over Highway One. Your tour will then take you around San Francisco with gorgeous views of the Transamerica Pyramid, Coit Tower, Alcatraz and the Golden Gate Bridge. During your flight, you will have the opportunity to take over the controls of the Cessna 172 and learn some of the basics of flying a light aircraft, managing complex airspace and aerial landmark recognition. Your tour can be customized according to your wishes, and there is also room to bring a friend, so don't forget to share this incredible experience!

Hands On Flying
Thanks for a great day. We had a blast on our bay tour flying lesson. We could have used more hands on as the title said but it was fun none the less. Perhaps you should rename the experience Bay Tour and take the hands on part out.

Scenic Flight Full Bay Tour
I was disappointed in the fact that I didn't get to have any hands on flight time during my bay tour flight as suggested by the name of the tour. It just turned out to be a sit back and enjoy the flight which I have already experienced before on other tours. My wife had purchased a similar hands on flight package for my brother in law in the Los Angeles area and he got to work the rudder during taxing to make turns, helped in take off and landing, and while in the air make turns and elevation changes. I did get the chance to hold on to the elevator controls during take off but that was the extent of my hands on flight experience and therefore was very disappointed in the overall flight tour. The tour itself was very beautiful as it was a clear day and not to much wind so a very smooth experience. Just wish I could have had more hands on flight time as stated in the package.

The flight was amazing! This was such a great experience for both me and my boyfriend. We enjoyed every minute of it. We had some awesome views of the SF Bay. Jared was such a fun and talented pilot he made the flight worth our while!

Question: Does the person get to have 'hands-on' of the controls throughout the entire flight, with help at takeof and landing like in your $199 and $175 flights?
Answer: Yes, the participant does get to take the controls throughout most of the flight with this experience; however the take-off and landing is handled by the pilot.
Question: I would like to know where exactly you fly. Do you go into San Francisco? Can you give me an idea of the area covered in the flight? Thanks.
Answer: The Hands-On Scenic Flight Full Bay Tour takes off from Reid-Hillview Airport in San Jose and therefore the majority of the flight time is between San Jose and San Francisco. Depending on conditions and air traffic control, your aircraft will either fly up the Pacific Coast from Half Moon Bay or over Highway One. This extended flight does make it into San Francisco Bay, and includes a flight tour of San Francisco itself.
