Welcome to the Boeing 737 Future Flyer Programme! Designed especially for budding aviators aged 12 to 21, this exciting course offers five 90-minute shared simulator sessions at a renowned aviation centre based at Luton Airport. You’ll be flying a cutting-edge, fixed-base Boeing 737-800 simulator, featuring stunning 220-degree wraparound visuals powered by a 4K projector. It’s so realistic, you'll feel like you're sitting in a real cockpit preparing for take-off! Each participant is paired with a fellow Future Flyer, and together you’ll follow a flight training programme modelled on the same structure used by commercial pilots. The first session introduces you to the basics—climbing, turning, and descending—before progressing to more advanced skills. As your training continues, you’ll tackle ILS and visual approaches, practice full flight deck procedures, and even take off and land at some of the world’s most challenging airports. One of the best parts? You can complete all five sessions over a couple of days, across a week, or spread them out to suit your schedule. Courses are available during major school holidays—including summer and half-terms—as well as after school, making them perfect for aspiring pilots still in education. Led by a team that’s known for being friendly, patient, and supportive, the Future Flyer Programme is the perfect way for young aviation enthusiasts to gain skills, confidence, and experience in a truly inspiring setting.
