The fastest of our planes. You sit behind each other, just like in a fighter plane.

The BlackShape Prime is the undisputed speed demon of the line-up. You are going to fly in a hypermodern aircraft. A two-seater plane in which you sit together with the instructor. You sit behind each other and there is double control. You will be flying most of the flight!

Location

The flying lessons are flown from Lelystad. In terms of movements the busiest airport in the Netherlands after Schiphol Airport. There is always a lot of activity and you can enjoy all kinds of aircraft that are constantly flying to and fro. This will make you look forward to your own flying lesson even more.

Superfast

The BlackShape Prime is a revolutionary aircraft with top performance. The Prime combines sportiness with versatility and creates a flying experience like no other. You sit in the back of the plane and feel like a fighter pilot.

The time has come!

From the flight school you have a great view of the runway. Enjoy the hustle and bustle of the airport. This will get you all in the mood! Below is a map of the Netherlands, showing how far you can fly.

Theory

You start with an explanation of the basics of flying. The instructor will answer important questions in this 'briefing'. How does an aircraft stay in the air? How do the pedals work? What are all the buttons and gauges for? Of course, you can also ask any questions you may have. Are you coming to the flying school together with your partner, friend and/or family member? Then he/she is also allowed to be present. Then you all know what you will experience in the air. You do not have to pay extra for this.

The theory part always takes about 20 minutes, regardless of the time you choose for the practical part. If you order 30 minutes, you get 20 minutes of instruction plus 30 minutes of practice.

Practice

After the theory part, you go to the plane with the instructor. First, you check together whether the aircraft is ready for departure. Then you drive to the runway, this is called taxiing. Through the headphones you can hear the instructor and the control tower. The instructor asks the control tower for permission to take off. And then the moment has arrived! In the air, you can fly the plane yourself. You will soon realise that this is a very special aircraft. The controls are extremely sensitive. You feel like an F16 pilot with all the modern equipment in front of you. You can fly everything yourself except the last part of the landing. Of course, the instructor helps you with everything. He takes over if you want to look outside. Or if you want to make photos or a video.

You choose how long the practical part takes. All the durations we offer are fun. But; the longer, the more fun of course!

Een enorm leuke en spannende ervaring, ook als je 66 jaar bent!

Je mocht echt zelf sturen, je kreeg volop de vrijheid. Maar wel fijn dat er werd ingegrepen als het niet helemaal naar wens ging.
Wat betreft de vlucht niet. Alleen jammer dat er verder weinig mogelijkheid was voor diegenen die mee waren om je te volgen of een versnapering te nuttigen.

A hugely fun and exciting experience, even if you are 66!

You were really allowed to steer yourself, you were given plenty of freedom. But nice that there was intervention if things didn't go quite to plan.
As far as the flight was concerned, no. Just a pity that there was little opportunity for those who were with you to follow you or have refreshments.

Mijn partner vond het echt fan-tas-tisch! Hij had ook een prettige instructeur en het weer was ook bijzonder goed. Hij heeft genoten van wat hij heeft beleefd en van hoeveel hij zelf mocht doen

Er werd rekening gehouden met zijn vliegervaring. het was persoonlijk en zeer positief.
Ik was, als cadeaugever, mee. Ik kon eigenlijk nergens kijken, ook niet bij vertrek. het restaurant was gesloten, daarmee ook het terras waarvanaf ik een mooi uitzicht had kunnen hebben. Dat vond ik echt heel jammer, alleen al vanwege foto's voor mijn partner die ik dus niet maken kon.

My partner thought it was really fan-tas-tastic! He also had a pleasant instructor and the weather was also particularly good. He enjoyed what he experienced and how much he was allowed to do himself

His flying experience was taken into account. it was personal and very positive.
I was along as a presenter. I couldn't actually look anywhere, not even on departure. the restaurant was closed, and with it the terrace from which I could have had a nice view. I really regretted that, if only because of photos for my partner that I couldn't take.

Het was een ongelooflijk mooie ervaring. Wat komt er veel bij kijken om goed en veilig te vliegen!

Hele fijne en rustige instructeur, erg toegankelijk en duidelijk in zijn uitleg. en het blackshape prime vliegtuig met de opstelling achter elkaar geeft echt het gevoel dat je het 'alleen' doet ;-)
Dit formulier, want ik kan geen foto uploaden... ;-)

It was an incredible experience. What a lot is involved in flying well and safely!

Very nice and calm instructor, very approachable and clear in his explanations. and the blackshape prime plane with the setup back to back really gives the feeling that you are doing it 'alone' ;-)
This form, because I can't upload a picture... ;-)

Ik vind het fantastisch

De ontvangst was prima. Maar waar het uiteindelijk om gaat is het vliegen was super. De uitleg over het toestel en tijdens het vliegen waar je op moest letten noem maar op. Een echte aanrader
De toegang nasr het dakterras zou mooi zijn. Dan is het allemaal beter te zien voor de mensen die meekomen.

I love it

The reception was fine. But what ultimately matters is the flying was super. The explanations about the plane and what to look out for while flying were great. Highly recommended
The access to the roof terrace would be nice. Then it would all be easier to see for the people coming along.

Zeer aangename vlucht gehad met zeer aangename instructeur(Ricardo, bedankt ;) ) Als SIM enthousiast kan ik dit zeker aanraden om dit eens te doen om mocht je nog nooit gevlogen hebben. Alles is natuurlijk wel even wennen en zal wel de nodige stress meebrengen, maar met mijn instructeur werd heb ik zeker wel genoten om dit als eerste vliegervaring te mogen meemaken ;)

Duidelijke uitleg, toffe communicatie
Veel informatie op het kleine scherm van de blackshape kan soms wel wat overweldigend zijn voor eerste keer in te stappen in dit vliegtuig. Bij de instructievideo in het begin ook misschien een mapje klaarleggen met foto's van de cockpits van de vliegtuigen zodat er op voorhand al kan kennis gemaakt worden met alle instrumenten/informatie dat weergegeven wordt op het display. Zodat je op de moment zelf al wat kennis gemaakt hebt met de cockpit voor je instapt ;)

Very pleasant flight had with very pleasant instructor(Ricardo, thanks ;) ) As a SIM enthusiast, I can definitely recommend doing this to if you have never flown before. Everything takes some getting used to and will be stressful, but with my instructor I certainly enjoyed this as a first flying experience ;)

Clear explanations, great communication
Much information on the small screen of the blackshape can sometimes be a bit overwhelming for first-time pilots. At the start of the instruction video, perhaps you could also prepare a folder with photos of the aircraft cockpits so that you can get to know all the instruments/information shown on the display beforehand. So that you can get to know the cockpit before boarding ;)

Geweldig, als ik het kon betalen kwam ik elk weeken minimaal een uur vliegen.

De Blackshape reageert meteen op minieme input. Is zo licht dat je voelt dat je op de lucht 'vaart', met voldoende pk's om vlot te stijgen en bochten te maken (volgende keer wil ik een aileron roll doen)
Helaas kunnen jullie niets verbeteren. Vliegen is nu eenmaal kostbaar.

Great, if I could afford it I'd come flying every weekend for at least an hour.

The Blackshape responds immediately to minute inputs. Is so light that you feel you are 'cruising' on air, with enough horsepower to take off smoothly and make turns (next time I want to do an aileron roll)
However, you can't improve anything. Flying is expensive now.
