Make it Count as Your First Hour Towards Becoming a True Pilot!

After your first flight you will earn a bona fide log book recording your first hour and signed by our FAA Certified Flight Instructor. This automatically counts towards the 40 hr minimum air time required for your pilot license!
Even if you are only in it for fun, the log book is your pilot's journal to keep.

The Real Experience

Co-located at Oakland International Airport, we fly with the "big boys", commercial jets servicing San Francisco Bay Area. Get ready to experience sharing the same radio towers with commercial airlines in taking off and landing!

How It Works

The tour is guided by one of our FAA-Certified Flight Instructors with years of experience training students from their very first lesson to a full private pilot license from the FAA (Federal Aviation Administration). Flying just 1000-3,000 feet above ground, the details cannot be more vivid and expressive. You get to condense what bus tours take a whole day to an unforgettable 1-hour air loop over the San Francisco Bay!

Our certified instructors take care of taking off and landing. With YOU at the controls in mid air, you get to carve out your own course within the 1-hour flight time!
