Hands-on flight experiences begin with 30 minutes of ground instruction, during which FAA-certified flight instructors introduce students to the ins and outs of the aircraft. After reviewing instrumental directions and demonstrating the physics of gravity by pushing students down a grassy knoll, instructors fire up a Cessna, taxi down the knoll to pick up the student, and hit the sky. After posing with thumbs up for a midair photograph, students try their hands at gentle turns and a circle of Gillette Stadium during a 40-minute flight. Upon returning to terra firma, instructors endorse the flight in a logbook that charts the pathway toward official pilot certification, which students can take home along with the two in-flight photographs.
