After the success of the first Bruce Air Flight 666 Experience, we are pleased to offer another chance to fly Bruce-Air, in a state-of-the-art full motion 737 flight simulator with personal instruction from Bruce!
THE SIMULATOR
This full motion flight simulator has been purchased by Bruce and ex-Astraeus colleage Mario Fulgioni as part of their aviation business, training and checking pilots and crews from many airlines. In fact, Bruce did his own pilot training in a 737 sim just like this one.
For those of you with good memories you might also recall that a 737 was the very first plane to bear the Bruce Air moniker when Flight 666 took its maiden voyage to Paris back in November 2003!
The simulator is located at Heathrow Airport, London.
THE EXPERIENCE
You will taxi the aeroplane around a major international airport, line up on the runway and perform the take off. If you're good enough, you'll do the landing too!
In between take off and landing,
you will be shown the real performance capabilities of a modern airliner and experience the most advanced cockpit visuals - so if all you want to do is sight see, we've got some pretty spectacular sights.
If a drummer can fly, so can you!
You can book a slot and have an hour of Bruce's one-to-one tuition all to yourself, or you can split it between 2 or 3 of you and divide up the hour of flying time between you and your friends. Or if you just want to bring a couple of people to sit in the observers seats (directly behind the pilots seats), you can do that too.
All participants will be given a personally signed commemorative Bruce Air Flight 666 certificate as a souvenir of their experience.
The Bruce Air Flight 666 Experience costs £666 +vat (at 20%) for one hour of simulator time with Bruce.
THE SLOTS
We have slots available - please check the calendar on the booking form for the latest availability.
Please note that you will be required to arrive up to 1 hour before the start of your slot -- this is to allow time for paperwork, escorting you to the simulator, going through the various security and ID checks necessitated by a professional aviation training centre. We also recommend you allow plenty of time after your session before needing to be on a flight home, for example, as sessions can over-run and traffic around Heathrow can be bad at certain times of day. If in doubt, please ask before you book.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Where will this be happening?
The simulator is located right next to Heathrow Airport. There are excellent transport links, including a tube station very nearby.

That is entirely up to you -- you have one hour to share as you see fit. Just let Bruce know how you want to split it when you enter the simulator.
Can I take photos?
You can take photos and/or video inside the simulator. Outside the simulator you can take photos but not video. Please be aware that you must switch off your mobile phone while you're inside the building, so we advise that you bring a proper camera and don't rely on your camera phone.

Sorry, but there is no room in the simulator and guests cannot wait outside.
Age Limits?
You must be 14 or over to enter the simulator, and be accompanied by an adult if under 18.
