      What to Expect  
     
     ... Your discovery flight lesson will begin with a check of the weather, including the winds, clouds, and other important information, to make certain the skies are safe for flight.

        After being briefed by your Certified Flight Instructor (CFI) on the plan for the lesson, you will proceed to the airport ramp area, where your CFI will walk you through a complete pre-flight inspection of the C172 Skyhawk. Once the entire aircraft is checked, including everything from the fuel grade to the threads on the tires, you will seat yourself in the left seat of the comfortable leather cockpit.

        Your CFI will show you how to start the G1000 displays, set the radios, start the engine, and make a call to Air Traffic Control for permission to depart. Soon you will realize that taxiing an aircraft is somewhat different than driving a car -- you steer with your feet!

        After performing a "run-up" check to ensure the engine is running smoothly, you will taxi onto the runway, and apply full throttle! The airplane will quickly accelerate down the runway, and, before you know it, the runway gently slips away...you are flying!
