Got this as a present from my daughter:) Flying a Boeing 737 taking off in Austria and landing in Tokyo:) Did two barrel rolls and a recovery from a stall. Brilliant experience at Ascent Aviation in Paisley. Captain Dave has an awesome business there and highly recommend it to anyone:)

Thanks guys, really was great. I have flown gliders 40 years ago and small Cesna and Bulldog. They were easy compaired to trying to turn this big bird. My left leg was sore after it with the rudder pedals:)

Very cool! There is a similar kind of business here in the states I just saw a video of. Offer the jetliner piloting experience, catering to people just wanting to try it for the cool factor, to experienced GA pilots wanting to see what it's like to fly commercially, to those wanting to get into a commercial piloting track in life and looking to see if they're interested enough by the flying experience. I'll have to dig up the link for it.
