wow u seriouy had the best CFI ever :D when i went on my first intro flight in september i told my CFI that i had experience in FSX and he still didnt let me do checklists, start the plane or even maneuver it on the ground, but it was still fun nontheless, hope you had a good time on yours :)

[thespiscraeft]

Lewis doesn't happen to fly on MS Flight Sim X does he? I fly a Piper Warrior and will go flying with him any time. :)

PS: The instructor forgot a couple things on part 1... but we won't get into details. hehe

Good job, Lewis.

[lewislef]

[JarvisJesseT]

This is awesome. I'm sure it is something he will never forget. I'm sure you are a proud father. I hope I can do the same thing for my son when he gets older.

[NIGHTEHAWK]

[hutton562]

What plane is this?

And how much did it cost?

[hutton562]

@hutton562 sorry! i forgot it said in the title but how much was it?

[Lvieru96]

@hutton562

It's a Piper Archer

I'm flying on my 15th in six days.It cost me £170 for an hour flight on a 4 seater Piper Warrior III.

I hope it's good.

[Lvieru96]

How much did it cost?

Im looking to save up for my 15th birthday,planning to fly in cheshire or trafford if my parents will allow me.But i fear it wil cost me £150 or so.

[ThePCForDummies]

Absolutely brilliant mate, I'm 14 and im taking my Private Pilots Licence corse and I am really enjoying it. From what ive seen in your video I think your going to 'fly' through this. Keep it up Lewis, safe landings mate :D

[Vacantstance]

Talk about your great birthdays, lol. I remember getting a Nascar driving lesson on my 12th. If that was heaven, I can imagine just how special this was. Thanks for sharing!

[lewislef]

o i remember u biggin hill yeah arnt u doing flight sim any more and good one for doing flying lessons:)

[lwood1000]

Good video. Nice flying lad! I'm learning to fly (15) at biggin hill and am

Loving it! I remember when I was stuck in flight sims. Got me used to the basics though!

Keep flying!

[sgboy00]

how weird, the instructor has 2 bars, and the "co pilot" has 2 black strips..........LOL XD

[CarMoves]

The video was great until the horrid music started. We want to hear the engine and banter -- not f'n music

[lewislef]

thatnks guys for your comments i realy enjoyed that day out it was amazing and im going up again next momth that would be cool :)

[AJMcHarg]

Hey you did an awesome job of your first flight buddy! Handling radio comms is often something new pilots find very intimidating but you took it in your stride! Your rudder control is also very good! Obviously all that work in simulators has had a great effect on your natural understanding of the basics. Keep up the good work and good luck for the future! =]

[n425tuj]

Great Video. Certainly brings back the memories from my first flight. It is something I will never forget and I am sure Lewis won't forget this flight in a hurry. Hope I can do the same for my son when he is older!!

[lewislef]

i bet you cant wait its great when you get up flying for real

[Strollingchimp]

I got one of these for Christmas I can't wait :)

[victorjara767]

good parents, i love to see it when parents put money into thier kids dreams. this is a day he will think about every time he takes off for the rest of his life :]

[lewislef]

[bigdavelef]

[pusserhill]

Brilliant video!! I fly online with Lewis now and then and this video was quite emotional. I am glad he enjoyed it, I certainly enjoyed his day out!
