Boeing 737 & Airbus A320 Simulator Experience

Are you ready to take command of a Boeing 737 or an Airbus A320? Step into the cockpit and embrace the captivating experience that awaits you at our flight simulator near Liverpool. Put on your aviator shades and gear up for the adventure of a lifetime!

Your journey begins with an easy drive from Liverpool, Manchester, Chester, and beyond, thanks to our convenient location near the M53. Upon arrival, you’ll go directly to the check-in desk, only this time, it’s not about boarding a plane as a passenger; it’s your turn to assume the role of captain!

As you walk up the ramp, choose your aircraft,left for Airbus A320 and right for Boeing 737. The choices can be made during your booking with our friendly team at Ellesmere. Prepare to be amazed as you step inside the simulator; the realism is breathtaking. The cabin replicates a genuine aircraft environment, featuring authentic oval windows, working overhead lockers, and even rows of true-to-life airline seats adorned with little headrest covers, also known as antimacassars.

But the excitement intensifies as you enter the cockpit. For our standard flight simulation experience, you will embark on a circuit at a local airport, where you’ll have the chance to take off, maneuver through the skies, and land safely back at the airport, making this an ideal choice for those wanting to dip their toes into the realm of big jet aviation.

If you crave a deeper dive into the life of a pilot, try our Airline Pilot Day. You'll go through essential pre-flight preparations such as checking NOTAMs, assessing weather conditions, and mapping flight paths before settling into the cockpit. You’ll follow the entire flying procedure and enjoy 70 minutes of flight time aboard either the A320 or Boeing 737.

For the ultimate experience, our Ultimate Pilot Experience offers you hands-on participation in all pilot tasks. After 20 minutes of in-air training, it’s time for the real deal,fly a full flight in real time! Like a true airline pilot, you will set everything up according to standard operating procedures, and as your passengers 'board' the aircraft, you’ll be responsible for startup, taxi, takeoff, cruising, descent, and landing,all conducted seamlessly.

Each moment spent in our flight simulators offers an unparalleled level of authenticity. The stunning visuals will have you convinced that you are truly at Manchester Ringway or Liverpool John Lennon airport. Get ready for an adventure that you won’t forget!
