    Scheduled a one hour photo flight over Baltimore using a Groupon. It was for a birthday gift and my…read morepartner absolutely loved it! This winter was pretty rough and the flight experience had to be rescheduled several times due to rain, snow, ice, etc....Marylanders, IYKYK! Brett Aviation was very flexible with the rescheduling and we had no issues using the Groupon. We were over the weight limit, but Brett still offered to accommodating us by splitting the flights up into two shorter flights. Since it was a birthday gift, I stayed while my partner went on the flight with Colby. The simple fact that they even offered to do this speaks volumes about the business and was a greatly appreciated gesture. My first suggestion is to definitely check the weight limit before booking, especially if both of you plan on going up in the plane. Also, do not forget your license. The aviation school is inside of a secure gated area and you will not be admitted into the gate without your license. There's a place (FBO building) where you can watch take off if others came with you or if one of you choose to stay. Nothing fancy but it's a gated area with benches. You can watch other planes take off and land as well. You can also sit inside where the FBO office is. Even though I didn't go on the flight this time, this was a fantastic experience! The Groupon was easy to use, the staff was friendly, and I heard the views were absolutely amazing. I booked it at 5:00, so it would coincide with sunset. Highly recommend for couples. Thanks Brett Aviation, and Colby for a great experience! We will be back! And this time, I'm going up!

    I purchased a Groupon for this experience, and while it was enjoyable, I didn't get as much time…read morecontrolling the airplane as I had expected. I was under the impression that there would be 30 minutes of ground instruction followed by 30 minutes in the air. However, when I arrived, no one was at the reception desk (the receptionist might have been out for lunch). I tried calling, but no one answered. After about 10-15 minutes, the receptionist returned and checked me in. I waited for an additional 15 minutes before being directed to wait in the museum until the pilot instructor was ready. Eventually, the instructor, who was finishing some paperwork, asked if I had a car and could follow her to the airplane hangar. Once there, she performed a quick inspection of the aircraft, and we got ready to fly. The flight itself felt shorter than expected, and I only had control of the airplane for 2-3 minutes. While the experience was fun, I was hoping for more hands-on time. I would consider trying it again with a different instructor to see if that makes a difference. For comparison, a similar experience I had two weeks later at a different location provided more detailed ground instruction, and I was allowed to take control for most of the flight.

    Found this gem on Groupon which was a flight/instruction for two people @ $103…read more what an amazing experience ! Hunter was our instructor and he was great !! Excellent at explaining , making you feel comfortable. This was a surprise for my husband on our first wedding anniversary and he absolutely loved it!! He was able to help with the take off, flew at 2500 feet above the bay, did turns and assisted with the landing. It was an incredible experience and he earned .5 hour of flight instruction! We all wore headphones and used that to communicate. I like how Hunter was able to switch over the control to my husband and take it back. I felt safe although a little nervous when my husband took over but he did great!! Definitely will plan a trip back to this place next time we come in town and look forward to bringing the kids with us next time! (They do have larger planes as there was a family of 5 waiting when we returned for their flight ) We also received a tour where Hunter explained what we were flying over. Super cool to see from above!! What a wonderful experience !

    Bought a discovery flight for my boyfriend on Groupon. I read the rules very carefully on…read morereschedules etc. Make sure if you reschedule because you cant make it that you call 72hrs ahead of time, I had to do that once. We had to reschedule another time due to weather. Neither times were an issue and we always got confirmed for our next time right away. The day had finally come and it was beautiful and sunny. I didn't fly, but I got to sit in the backseat and watch him fly (also pretty fun and I got great pictures). Our instructor was pretty informative and went around to show us the plane. My boyfriend literally couldn't stop smiling, he said he had a great time and now he wants to buy a plane! A discovery flight is a great gift for someone that loves new experiences. I highly recommend!

My friend and I came here and we filled out all our consent forms and gave them the Groupon code. Then they took us to the back and explained everything to us. In the plane, you basically sit shotgun while the experienced professional flies the plane into the air to a safe altitude and then they give you control. Flying the actual plane was such an amazing experience. It felt scarier than skydiving to me. The instructor let's you fly for about 20-30 minutes and then he takes you down to the location. He also lands the plane. It apparently gets added to your flight hours if you were planning on becoming licensed. This is a once in a lifetime experience that I high encourage you try. I don't regret it in the slightest and the staff here make you feel safe.

Friendly staff and great Certified Flight Instructors. I highly recommend Dream Flight School if you're looking to obtain your PPL or IFR certificate. The planes used are clean and well maintained, some are even being updated with the newest technology. Additionally KDMW Airport is clean, and the Skytech staff are friendly. It's always nice to have the people fueling your planes encourage your progress -- just adds to the overall experience at Dream Flight School!

    This place absolutely rocks - definitely come here for the flight lessons!…read more I came here for an introductory helicopter flight lesson on a whim and was extremely impressed from beginning to end. The quality and detail involved in the instruction here is superb - you feel like you're being given all of the information you need, from the basics to more complex properties of the helicopters. There was no point where I felt like the information was overwhelming or over-simplified: it seemed like the right mix of education and beginner's instruction. As for the flight, it's a blast! While I was far from talented at piloting the helicopter, I was given quite a lot of control over time, and I felt increasingly comfortable as time went on. I felt safe and monitored the entire time - even when a lot of wind blew the helicopter around, the instructor was available to make things right quickly and effortlessly. Needless to say, if you have the time and the money, give this place a shot!

He was very personable and knowledgeable. He pointed out various landmarks and places that we would be interested in seeing. He took the time to explain everything and throughly check the vehicle, it made us feel very safe and comfortable. Seth answered all questions, and even cracked a few jokes. I would definitely recommend them for celebrating a special occasion or just a romantic date. Make sure to ask for Seth by name you won't be disappointed!
