Virtual Jet Centre was set up by a pilot with over 30 years' experience in the commercial airline industry. As well as orientation courses for trainee pilots, the cockpit is also opened to members of the public in order for them to experience the rush of flying a jet liner. Those with a fear of flying can also take to the controls to learn more about the sounds and process of the flight, and can also benefit from one-on-one chats with a local therapist.
