Auckland's West Coast Beaches Flight Experience
Your experience starts with a pre-flight briefing covering the basics of the controls and operation of our two seat, dual control trainer.
Once seated and strapped into the plane, hands on the controls getting a feel for things while your instructor taxis the aircraft and rolls for take-off. Soon during the climb out you'll hear the words, “YOU HAVE CONTROL!”
Flying over Woodhill Forrest and then the black sands of Muriwai Beach, we fly South along the beach past the Takapu Gannett Colony, Maori Bay, O'Neil's Beach, Bethells Beach, Anawhata, Piha & finally Karekare before turning back North. Your instructor will guide you through all control inputs and will be glad to take the controls at any time if you feel uncomfortable or need a break.
Flight Duration is approximately 45 minutes covering a distance of around 90kms and the whole experience will take about an hour.
Bookme Special: Worth $319 from $199.

It was a brilliant experience to flying with Richard! Just like your 1st time learning how to drive, you always feel a bit nervous, but Richard make sure everything was smooth as. I was suprised he really can let go and i took control during flying whole way upon Piha!! I am sure that i will have my 2nd flight soooon. Thanks Richard!
Hi Cheongki Thanks for the great review! I'm glad that you really enjoyed the flying. It was fantastic flying with you and look forward to seeing you at Parakai soon. Cheers Richard
Amazing experience! And Richard was a great and patient instructor! I enjoyed it very much!
Thanks for the review, Edi. It was great to fly with you - you're a natural at this and I think it would be great if you could find somewhere in Switzerland to continue learning to fly. Hope to see you in the air someday, soon. Cheers, Richard
I´ve done a lot of stuff in New Zealand but this was the most awesome one. Well spent money compared to the price! Must do if you never flew a plane by yourself and want to see the beautiful coast of the north island.
Jonas, thanks for the great review. It was fantastic talking with you about skydiving and flying. I wish you all the best for your future aerial activities and look forward to seeing you again, should you come back to our Land of the Long White Cloud!
