Discovery Flight

Curious about what it takes to become a pilot? At Vegas Aviation, our Discovery Flight program is the perfect starting point for anyone considering a future in aviation.

WHAT IS A DISCOVERY FLIGHT?

Your flight time actually counts toward private pilot requirements and can be entered in your Pilot Log Book!
