#2	Downtown Adventure	$189.95
#3	Lake Geneva Getaway	$269.95

A one and a half hour adventure in which the student experiences all the different aspects of flight and flight preparation. Upon arrival, the student is assigned their own personal FAA Certified Flight Instructor, who will walk them through all the things a real pilot does before, during, and after a typical flight.

This first lesson is not to be confused with an “airplane ride”, where one is passive and watches someone else do the work. The whole idea of this introductory flight lesson is to get the student to do as much as possible - to push the student right up to their potential.

The student will do all the pre-flight procedures, will taxi the aircraft, talk to the control tower themselves to get take off clearance, take the plane off, and once airborne, do many in-flight maneuvers.

Of course, the instructor will be sitting next to the student telling him to “push this” and “pull that”, but the student will do most of the flying.

The flying time will be approximately 30 minutes as the student joins the “elite few in history” who have actually piloted an aircraft themselves.

A certificate of completion (suitable for framing) with the logged hours, signed by their Certified Flight Instructor, as well as a photograph of the student standing beside the airplane, will be awarded to the student after the flight.

Obviously, the student will not learn how to fly in one lesson, but no matter which intro flight they fly, they will experience all the different aspects of flight, have a lot of fun, and acquire enough information and experience to make a decision as to whether they would be interested in continuing the challenge of learning how to fly.

The procedural and ground portion of The Downtown Adventure are the same as The First Foray, but the big difference is that the actual flying time on The Downtown Adventure is actually doubled. With the limited flying time of The First Foray, one cannot get very far from the airport. But with The Downtown Adventure, there is sufficient flying time to get to the city and back.

The student will take off from Chicago Executive Airport, fly over Glenview, Deerfield, Northbrook, Winnetka, Wilmette, and Evanston, out to Lake Michigan then just over Bahai Temple. From there he will turn right and fly south down Lake Shore Drive, circle the Loop, the Sears Tower, and Hancock Building.

Returning along Chicago’s great North Side, the student will be able to fly over Wrigley Field, Skokie, Lincolnwood, Morton Grove, and will help with the initial landing procedures back at Chicago Executive Airport.

Truly a remarkable experience.

Our Deluxe Introductory flight is one that will be remembered for a lifetime! It truly is one of the world’s greatest gifts. Perfect for the person who has everything!

Just northeast of Lake Geneva is beautiful Grand Geneva Resort. After the procedural and ground portions are completed at Chicago Executive Airport, the student takes off, flies north over Mundelein, Libertyville and Lincolnshire to Great America, then turns left toward the Wilmot Ski Lodge, the Chain of Lakes, and the City of Lake Geneva, before landing at the Grand Geneva Airport.

The student and instructor discuss the flight over a light lunch or snack at the famous Grand Geneva Resort (lunch is not included). Returning home, they head South over the Fox River, Kemper Lakes, Wauconda, Lake Zurich, and then back home to beautiful Chicago Executive Airport. Truly, a never-to-be-forgotten experience.
