Flying lesson from Lelystad to Texel and back. In a two or four-person plane.

Order

Do you want more than a standard flying lesson? Then fly together with an instructor from Lelystad to the beautiful Texel and back. Choose the two- or four-person plane. Then you can take two friends along too!

Locations

The flying lessons are flown from Lelystad. In terms of flight movements this is the busiest airport in the Netherlands after Schiphol. There is always plenty of activity and you can enjoy all kinds of planes that are constantly flying back and forth. This will make you look forward to your own flying lesson even more.

You fly from the polder to a tourist island with lots of nature. The Texel airport has a grass runway with a cosy terrace next to it. The whole day there is a lot of activity, including parachutists.

Ready for take-off?

After take-off from Lelystad, you set course for the IJsselmeer. You will fly along the Houtribdijk, over Enkhuizen and via the naval base of Den Helder towards Texel. Once you have arrived at Texel Airport, join the instructor on the terrace. There you will go over the outward flight and the return flight will be prepared. This takes about 30 minutes in total. Afterwards, you get back into the plane and fly back to Lelystad.

Two- or four-seater aircraft

This flight lesson is held in a two- or four-seater aircraft. In the four-seater aircraft, a maximum of two passengers can fly with the student. On Texel you can swap places with one of the passengers. This way one person flies the outward journey and someone else the return journey. You do not pay extra for the passengers; the prices are the total for the plane. You are the only ones who fly with us

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 all your questions. 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. Of course, this also applies to the passengers.

The theory part takes about 20 minutes.

Practice

After the theory part, you will go to the aircraft 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 permission from the control tower to take off. And then the moment has arrived! In the air, you can fly the plane yourself. You can fly everything except the last part of the landing. Because of the distance you will travel, this is a unique experience. Of course, the instructor will help you with everything. He will take over if you want to look outside. Or if you want to make photos or a video.

Duration

The total duration of the arrangement is about 3 to 4 hours. The flight time from Lelystad to Texel is approximately 45 minutes there and 45 minutes back. The actual time depends on the air traffic and the wind. In addition, there is a minimum of one and a half hours for the briefing, debriefing and various preparations.

We hebben een fantastische les gehad! Met z'n tweeën de les beleven was geweldig. We kregen superduidelijke instructie en mochten meer doen dan verwacht (zelf starten!). De stop op Texel was gezellig met de instructrice. Kortom, een topdag!

De instructie was erg duidelijk en gezellig en we mochten meer doen dan verwacht.
De brandstoftoeslag was begrijpelijk, maar kregen we pas te horen na het reserveren. Dat had op de website aangegeven kunnen worden.

We had a fantastic lesson! Experiencing the lesson in pairs was great. We got super clear instruction and got to do more than expected (start ourselves!). The stop on Texel was fun with the instructor. In short, a top day!

The instruction was very clear and fun and we were allowed to do more than expected.
The fuel surcharge was understandable, but we were only told after booking. This could have been indicated on the website.

Wat fijn om te lezen dat je een leuke dag gehad hebt!

De brandstoftoeslag staat al op de website. Je vindt de opmerking over de brandstoftoeslag namelijk bij het product, onder het kopje 'opmerkingen'. Daarnaast wordt de brandstoftoeslag vermeld in de e-mail die je hebt ontvangen na het reserveren.

The flying lesson to Texel and back was super. A lot of fun. After a short explanation, we flew to Texel with the instructor and had some food and drinks. And flew back again. There were three of us, one flew there and one flew back. Super fun day and experience.

Flying yourself and operating the controls on instructions.
No need to worry.

Een mooie vlucht naar Texel en terug, met uitgebreide uitleg, demonstratie.

Het vliegen en met name de instructie was fantastisch, erg veel zelf kunnen doen.
De communicatie vooraf kan duidelijker, bij de aanmelding is het handiger om aan te geven hoeveel leerlingen c.q. passagiers er mee kunnen.

A beautiful flight to Texel and back, with extensive explanations, demonstration.

The flying and especially the instruction was fantastic, very much able to do yourself.
The communication in advance could be clearer, when registering it would be more convenient to indicate how many students/passengers can come along.
