Discovery Flight

Let’s Fly Jacksonville offers Introductory Flights starting at $179 in our Cessna 172 for those interested in pursuing a Private Pilot’s License. These flights are approximately 30 minutes or 1 hour long and are highly recommended for anyone interested in aviation. You will fly in the pilot’s seat next to one of our FAA Certified Flight Instructors in the co-pilot’s seat. You will take-off from Craig Field, the Blue Angels first flight demonstration field and perform basic aircraft maneuvers.

“The goal of this flight is to see if you are comfortable in a small aircraft and if flying is something you want to pursue. .”
