Full Motion Experience Avis 32

We had full motion flight experience with B737 and it amazing time. We had booked for 2 hours and it was perfect time allowing to try a variety of flights, landings and take offs from different airports, and different weather conditions such as storm or snow. Our captain was Mak, who was very welcoming and friendly. He was very knowledgeable and made us feel comfortable explaining everything in plain English which was very helpful to someone who has no prior experience how to control the airplane. We have learned a lot about airplanes and pilot's life. Simulator was really great and very realistic which was like being in a real airplane. We really enjoyed it and would like to thank our captain Mak for making our experience the best.

Such a good experience. Mak, our pilot was amazing and my husband got a really good experience with lots of scenarios (bird strike was my fave) to complete. The full motion is just like you feel on a real plane. Such a professional company and communication has been amazing (we travelled far to go) . I Would 100% recommend anyone who has always wanted to know what it’s like to fly these planes to book, you won’t regret it.

Our 11 year old son had a 90 minute session in the fixed base simulator and ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT! 5 family members went with him, 4 sat in the mock cabin behind the cockpit and we all took turns to sit in the jump seat behind the captain!
The instructor Mak was amazing, he was very friendly and relaxed and was a great teacher, he made sure the session was tailored to exactly what our son wanted to do. He tried take-offs and landings from different airports in different weathers. He tried different manouvres and scenarios and even managed to fly under the Golden Gate Bridge!
Mak had a great sense of humour and made it fun for all of us and was very accomodating.
We paid for the add-on to get the recording of the session, a screen in the mock cabin showed the video as it was recording, the cameras filmed our son from 2 different angles in the cockpit and also showed the view that he could see out of the window. The video was sent to me by email straight after the session and our son loved seeing himself flying the plane and can't wait to show his friends.
We made an afternoon of it and got lunch from the restaurant in the main airport terminal and watched the small planes take-off and land.

I would DEFINITELY RECOMMEND Full Motion, I don't usually write reviews but felt I had to for this as the whole experience was brilliant from start to finish. Our son is very keen to become a pilot and he had the best time ever!
(Andy in the office was super helpful too, answering all my questions over email before and after I booked the experience.)

A brilliant immersive experience in the B737 full motion flight simulator. Made all the more unforgettable by the excellence of instructor Mak.

Great experience! I have a PPL, so had some idea about what I was seeing and experiencing, but I learned a huge amount about how a big aircraft is operated and the realism associated with the full-motion was superb - it really made it feel like we were flying. My instructor, Capt Mak was very friendly and helpful and was quite happy to answer all my questions with a smile. Highly recommend!

What a great experience! From arrival and the briefing by Mak, followed by a full hour in the sim, it was as realistic as it could possibily be without actually flying a real 737.
Mak made the entire experience great fun and offered a selection of flight and airport options.
Will definitely be booking again in the future.

Wonderful expwrience. For me, medical B restricted PPL holder (due to partial colorblind issues), this experience was closest I can get to flying the real A320. After thousands of hours on various PC and fix-based a320 trainers, I decided to step upwards and try the full motion. We flew two sectors, my companion was type-rated pilot, friend of mine. Simulator is great, the feeling is actually as in the real one. Instructor Mak is very kind and he set all the wanted scenarios for us. Big thanks also to Andy, who was very kind and responsive through all the mail conversations, and made sure all our wishes were taken into account. Wonderful experience, defenitely comming back again!

I surprised my aviation-loving partner with this incredible experience for his birthday. And let me tell you, it turned out to be a last-minute stroke of luck! Andy, the hero of the day, pulled off some magic to secure the flight on our preferred date with their absolute rockstar instructor. The cockpit's realism and the way the motion tech makes you feel like you're actually flying – it's a total game-changer.

We got to play around with different scenarios – rainy days, foggy takeoffs, tackling tricky landings at places like Madeira, and yes, even dealing with the loss of one engine. Our guide, Mak, was more than fantastic. He effortlessly guided us through it all and patiently answered all our curious questions. My partner? Well, let's just say they were on cloud nine with this birthday surprise.

The graphics are seriously top-notch, adding that extra touch of realness. It's not just a fun time; it's like getting a hands-on lesson in handling all kinds of flying situations.

To put it simply, if you're an aviation buff, you've gotta give this a go! ★★★★★

Mak made it a fun, interesting & enjoyable experience. Myself & brother had an amazing time! Superb set-up. Great instruction from Mak. Just brilliant! Many thanks to everyone involved. An excellent present!

My interest in aviation started with the basic Cessna 182RG simulator on my PC, and always wondered whether I had learnt enough to be able to fly a sizeable jet.
The opportunity to find out came when my very generous wife bought me my first surprise Full Motion Experience.
I was a little apprehensive not knowing exactly what to expect but need not have been all thanks to the friendly manner of instructor Captain Mak.
As part of the briefing he can assess your abilities, knowledge and relevant experience and tailor the experience to suit perfectly.
That first experience was truly instructive, pleasurable and memorable. My reactions must have been obvious as my wife booked me a second session which turned out to be equally great.
I would thoroughly recommend anyone with the slightest inclination to try this rewarding experience to book it with Full Motion Experience. The process was so simple and communication with them (Andy) was excellent.

One of the best ways I have ever spent an afternoon!

As purely an enthusiast of aircraft and machinery in general, I had always wanted to experience what it was like for the skilled pilots of the world to fly a sizeable passenger jet.

My amazing wife found Full Motion Experience and bought me a voucher for an hour in a professional flight sim for a Boeing 737. After a pleasant exchange with the Full Motion team to sort the dates, it was off up the road to Burgess Hill on the 22nd July we went.

On arrival we were greeted and shown in by a venue simulator engineer who was very welcoming. We then wait in the cafe surrounded by vending machines and with a view of the simulator hall.

When it was time for my slot the gentlemen looking after me - an experienced pilot named Mak took us into a briefing room where we formally but in a relaxed fashion discussed what I wanted to get out of the time in the simulator. Once I had described I just wanted to experience controlling the aircraft and listed off a few choice airports, Mak took my wife and I into the simulator machine itself and helped us get comfortable.

The efficiency in how Mak set up the experience was incredible. Within minutes I was seated in the pilot flying left seat and Mak had established the aircraft for my first take off. As an instructor he was clear and precise, answered all questions easily and quickly, offered us plenty of different things to try and was a truly great host.

The machine itself was nothing short of remarkable. I was told it had to be 99.9% accurate to real life and there is no kidding - it really was incredible. The sounds, graphics and motion felt as real as real can be without being in a real aircraft. It was easy to forget where you were.

From the start to finish of this experience I was grinning, feeling perfectly comfortable and I haven't shut up about it to my friends and family since. I have come away with amazing photos/video clips and the best memory.

Thank you Full Motion Experience and thank you Mak - I will be back one day!

A great experience!! Mak is an attentive, professional guide and gave expression to every whim I could think of. This is an experience that I wish for every flight enthusiast and especially with an excellent guide like Mak. I will go there again, without a doubt!!

Worried about flying? Seriously, just do this course. I had not flown for 5 years and everybody was pretty convinced I never would again.

I boarded a plane home after the course (yesterday) and flew home. I am now going to Spain later in the year.

If you are reading this thinking, 'yeah but, my fear is different, it wont work for me', then you are thinking exactly what I was before I went.

Do this course!!

(oh and stop googling stuff about how planes can go wrong, Mak will debunk absolutely everything you read!)

My brother Andrew and I contacted Full Motion for the A320 Full Motion simulator experience, asked a few questions that were answered quickly, and we booked a two hour slot based on their availability. From start to finish it was a smooth and flawless experience. Mak our sim instructor was friendly, professional and accomodating with all the scenarios we wanted to fly through and practice. We highly endorse Full Motion and the L3 Harris facility making the entire process enjoyable and stress free.

Absolutely unique and exceptional experience! If you like flying or are an aviation lover, you will truly have an unforgettable time and great sensations, definitely worth the price. Andy was extremely helpful and fast at answering any questions I had for me to plan what I specifically wanted to do in advance of the flight, and the instructor Mak was also amazing and taught me a lot from his incredible experience as a professional pilot. I had the chance to do a 90-min session on the B737 - including: a full flight from Gatwick to Heathrow (with pre-departure checks, taxi, takeoff, flying the scheduled route, approach and landing), several takeoffs and landings at other airports of my choice (Boston, Barcelona, Innsbruck) and in various conditions such as daytime, nighttime, rainy, heavy turbulence, etc. Very lucky to have been able to experience this full-motion simulator that professional pilots use for their training - definitely highly recommended!

An incredible experience flying the Boeing 737. I went with two friends and we rotated our time in the captain's seat. I tried approaches with engine failures and TCAS alerts, one friend an approach into Spain and another was interested in starting the plane up from dark. Our instructor, Mak, was able to flawlessly handle each of our knowledge levels (from 'absolutely none' to 'a few YouTube videos'), questions and requests with ease, adding in relevant information and opportunities (like recovering from a stall :) ) into each flight. Leading up to the flight Andy provided great communication for booking our timeslot into the busy schedule of the simulators at a time that worked for us.

Saying you've had the opportunity to fly the closest thing to a real commercial airliner is always a good conversation starter and this experience is something we're all going to remember every time we fly. I can recommend Full Motion Experience highly!

An amazing family birthday experience from my amazing family - 2 exhausting and utterly exhilarating hours in a full motion Boeing 737-800 simulator.
Mak, the instructor from Full Motion Experience was absolutely fantastic - highly professional, extremely patient and a brilliant instructor, who encouraged me to try a whole range of challenging scenarios.
My two hours flew by - initially trying out general handling and becoming familiar with the controls.
Soon I felt ready to try a number of scenarios I'd suggested in advance via email with Andy at Full Motion Experience (who was incredibly helpful & friendly) and he liaised with Mak well before my visit to ensure that these could be set up in the simulator.
I accomplished everything I planned for and Mak threw in a few more surprises too:
Engine failures, go-arounds, stalls, depressurisation dives, hydraulic failures, windshear on landing, takeoffs and landings galore; Heathrow, Innsbruck, Southampton, Bournemouth, London, New York & Madeira. Amazing scenery over Manhattan and the Alps and extremely realistic airports which made you believe you were sat on the flight deck of a genuine airliner.
After the session, a short debrief with Mak on what went well - 3 passable landings! - and also what didn't (You learn from your mistakes!)
It was all so very real and immersive. What an experience! This is the real deal.
Take my advice and make sure you book longer than a 30 minute slot - you'll kick yourself when it all comes to an end and will wish you had way more time in the incredible simulator.
Highly recommended!

I have been very lucky to have another chance to experience the joys of being in a full motion sim. This time I was on the the 737 with Paul. Paul was fantastic. He started by give a very detailed and informative briefing getting me to understand and familiarise the 737 cockpit instruments switches and controls.
We then went into the Sim were he made you feel very at ease. He was great at getting you to challenge your abilities and build up your work rate with more and more demanding scenarios. He also made you understand the procedures and abilities of the aircraft.
Had the chance to have several approaches into Lanzarote which was fun as it has been our family holiday destination for many years so it was nice to see the island from the cockpit windows for a change.
Thanks once again to Andy for organising another fantastic and highly enjoyable experience. Also thank you to Paul for making me feel very welcome and making the experience so pleasurable.

For my 21st birthday, I was fortunate enough to have a full motion flight simulator experience. I was made to feel very welcome from the instant I arrived, and the entire facility exuded cleanliness and professionalism.

I had a terrific time and would like to thank Mak in particular. Mak was my instructor who not only made my visit enjoyable and memorable, but also spent time explaining how to pursue a career in aviation. As a result, I've begun my Private Pilot License (PPL), with the goal of eventually earning a complete Airline Transport Pilot Licence (ATPL).

I would highly recommend Full Motion Experience at Burgess Hill to anyone looking for a professional and immersive flight experience.

Fantastic experience for any aviation enthusiast who wants to try a full motion simulator. Communication from Full Motion was fantastic (thanks Andy). The day went without a hitch and Mak was a fantastic instructor and allows you to fully customise your experience. Highly recommend booking with Full Motion Experience for this once and a lifetime opportunity!
