Boeing 737 simulator Oudenaarde

Did you dream from a young age of being a pilot of a large passenger aircraft? Or do you just want to experience for yourself how it feels to land the most popular passenger plane? Then follow a flying lesson in the Boeing 737NG simulator! Come to Oudenaarde to follow this flying lesson. Oudenaarde is located between Ghent, Kortrijk and Brussels.

Realistic

With over 10,000 units, the Boeing 737 is the best-selling commercial aircraft in the world . The Boeing 737 Next Generation is the third generation of the Boeing 737. The simulator is an exact replica of the cockpit in which all systems and instruments are fully operational.

The simulator provides a very realistic flying experience. In consultation with the instructor you decide how many auxiliary systems you want to use. For example, fly with the autopilot, autothrottle and flight director or fly the Boeing completely manually. In manual 'raw data flying' you will see what it takes to control a large aircraft. The 737 is equipped with a 224 degrees view system, which puts you right in the middle of the action. You forget that it is a static simulator. Furthermore, the simulator is equipped with dual controls, and all buttons and systems are the same as in the real plane. That makes flying on this simulator a fantastic experience that you won't soon forget!

Theory

You'll receive a briefing on the basics of flying a Boeing 737NG. The instructor will answer the most important questions: what are all the buttons, lights and other instruments for? Of course you can also ask all your questions. If you bring someone with you, he or she may of course attend the introduction. Then you both know what you will experience 'in the air'. You do not have to pay extra for this.

This explanation will take about 10 minutes.

Practice

Then you step into the simulator, depending on the duration of the lesson, there are different routes possible. For example, during a flight lesson of 50 minutes you can take off from an airport of your choice, fly and then make one or more landings at another airport. This is a challenging course where you have to work hard with all the checks. Of course, the instructor will help you with everything. This simulator is also used to train the pilots who will bring you safely to your vacation or work destination. From now on you know how it goes in the cockpit.

How long the flying lesson lasts you choose. The minimum is 35 minutes. But the longer, the more fun of course!
