ONE DAY PILOT
Pilot-for-a-Day Experience: Some aviation companies offer pilot-for-a-day experiences, where you can spend a full day with a pilot and experience their daily routine. You may get to participate in pre-flight checks, plan a flight route, and fly a small aircraft under the guidance of a certified pilot.
A 30-minute flight from Subang airport to the world’s most iconic and tallest twin buildings, the Petronas buildings Kuala Lumpur. A terrific opportunity for you and your two friends in the backseat (included in the ticket) to snap photographs and selfies with a fantastic view while flying in an aeroplane. Passing via Batu Caves and the famed Kuala Lumpur jail, also known as the Bamboo Hotel, you will be able to view (weather allowing) the largest hotel in the distance, the Genting Resort with its 6000 rooms, high up on the mountains.
The Royal Palace and Kuala Lumpur’s premium housing neighbourhoods are only 2 miles distant, 1500 feet above it all. As you pass through Bukit Lanjang, you will notice One Utama, the Klang Valley’s retail centre. Back to Subang Airport after passing via the Curve and Mutiara Damansara, the Klang Valley’s newest and fastest-growing district.
If the weather and traffic conditions allow, you will be allowed to assume control of the aircraft under the supervision of the Flight Instructor and experiment with controls, power, and velocity. After a safe and exhilarating arrival at Subang Airport, you’ll have plenty of opportunity to snap additional shots and selfies with the plane.
A 60-minute journey covering KL City, the Petronas Towers, and Batu Caves, but instead of lingering in the city, we will travel out to the countryside, tracking via Templer’s Park to the seaside fishing hamlet of Kuala Selangor. We next proceed to Port Klang through the Melaka Straits. This port serves the Klang Valley and was Malaysia’s second port after Penang. We will be able to explore both the western and southern ports, as well as the famed Royal Selangor Yacht Club. From there, we’ll head east, passing the Shah Alam Mosque, which has the world’s biggest minarets.
Joining directly downwind for runway 15, you’ll even have a chance to witness the Malaysian Air Force’s heavy-lifters, the Hercules C 130 and the Airbus A400. Subang Airport, in addition to being a commercial, helicopter, and general aviation airport, is also a military airport and one of the busiest in the country.
