Today we spent a memorable and great early afternoon in Takeoff Simulations' Airbus A320 simulator at the Aviation Museum. In addition, my pen pals Uli and Päivi were in the sim. Uli is wearing a blue sweater and Päivi is wearing a brown outfit.
I would not have believed how well Uli and Päivi flew the Airbus, even though they had no experience with flight simulators. Both of them got the plane in the air, at the right height, made the necessary turns and got the plane intact to the runway of the destination field. Great performance!😊
Our host this time was Mikael, who has been a commercial pilot for 30 years. Thanks to him for the good guidance.

I took a group of six people from our badminton club to try the A320 simulator of Takeoff Simulations Oy. It was a fantastic experience. The simulator is of high quality and has, for example, a 180 degree view. We received excellent service and I recommend this flight simulator experience to everyone interested in aviation.

Really excellent staff (the co-pilot ;) ). We took off from Helsinki Vantaa airport cruised around and landed about half an hour later. We started with cold boot of all the systems which meant starting with batteries and continuing with powering the APU. Staff knew everything about the plane and he held a flight licence of his own so he had real life experience about flying also.

If you are in Helsinki and looking for something to do, i recommend this great opportunity. Airbus 320 Simulator, for people who always wanted to try this real life simulator. The owner is friendly and has great patience to tell and show how the simulator works. For only 80€ you can takeoff, fly about 20min and land. --> video http://youtu.be/WtBYfLTBXMc. Highly recommend

Wow, really interesting event. We had the captain’s course, my son acted as captain. The guide was professional, yet very funny, and gave us difficult questions about flying. 1,5 hrs went really quickly!

You could almost make a perfect vacation in this complex. Fly your own vacation flight to St. Maarten. Land on the famous airport next to the beach. Then you can go to biitsi.fi place to feel the beach.
But seriously speaking. Very nice simulator experience. Excellent service and guidance. You get to pick from several options your favourite flight. You get to do the preparations by the check list, take off, fly to the destination and land there. With the Airbus A300 work horse.
You also might get to check out the VR goggles and Google Earth if you haven't experienced that yet.

Got a captain course as a gift and wow, the visit beat all my expectations! From excellent hosting and training from co-pilot Panu to the very immersive experience of flying an Airbus. Recommended to anybody with or without experience in flying!

I did the "most dangerous approaches" program and it was really cool to fly them with the sim. It is really immersive with the full cockpit.
