Oahu
Super save and enjoyable flight! Saw two whales breaching! Highly recommend.
I'm stoked you enjoyed your flight. Thank you!
Being able to pilot a Cessna is a valuable experience. I took off and made turns from the captain's seat. The pilot was a Japanese man, which made me feel at ease since he spoke Japanese. I found myself wanting a pilot's license. I want to do it again.
セスナを操縦できることは貴重な体験。キャプテン席で離陸や旋回をやりました。パイロットは日本人の男性で日本語で安心しました。操縦免許が欲しくなりました。またやりたいです。
If you are prone to motion sickness, be sure to prepare in advance. Sunglasses are a must.
乗り物酔いしやすい方は事前に準備を。サングラスは必須です。
As a first step towards my middle school son's dream of becoming a pilot, we had a flight experience, and I'm really glad we did. Since he still finds it difficult to understand English, we hoped for someone who could speak Japanese, and we were fortunate to have a wonderful person with a lovely smile, which made us feel at ease during the flight. The owner was very dedicated and shared amazing stories that felt like a lecture, leaving us deeply moved until the very end. I was also very happy to hear the kind words encouraging us to reach out anytime to help make my son's dream a reality.
Honestly, it wasn't cheap, so I hesitated, but the experience was truly worth it, and the breathtaking views have become a wonderful memory, so I highly recommend it!
将来パイロットになりたいとの中学生の息子の夢への第一歩として操縦体験をしましたが、本当に体験できてよかったです。まだ英語の理解が難しいので日本語の話せる方を希望しましたが、笑顔の素敵な方で安心してフライトを楽しむことができました。オーナーさんはとても努力家の方で講演会レベルの素敵なお話を聞かせて頂き最後まで感動しっぱなしでした。息子の夢が更に現実に向かえる様いつでも連絡してください。ととてありがたいお言葉も大変嬉しかったです。
正直お安くはないので悩みましたが本当にそれ以上の感動があり、あの絶景が素敵な思い出になりましたのでお勧めです‼︎
I have a boating license, so next I pursued an airplane license, which I had been interested in for a while and finally experienced. On the day of the flight, there was a strong south wind, and we took off heading north, flying down the East Coast and returning west over Waikiki Beach. The various views from above and being able to look down at Diamond Head from the Cessna were breathtaking, and I was lucky enough to see a rainbow below!
船舶ライセンスはあるので,次は飛行機ライセンスと以前から興味があり体験しました。
当日、南風が強く北回りで離陸して東海岸を南下してワイキキビーチ上空を西に帰還するルートでした。上空からの様々な景色やダイヤモンドヘッドをセスナで見下ろせるのは、圧巻なのと運良く眼下に虹🌈もみれてラッキーでした。
When it's windy in Hawaii, the Cessna can be bumpy, so please board with determination (laughs).
ハワイは風が強い時には、セスナが揺られるので、気合い入れて搭乗下さい(笑)
I experienced the 60-minute two-person Cessna plan. It was great that we could communicate in Japanese during the pre-flight lecture and the flight. I was nervous at first, but as the pilot explained the controls and the scenery on the ground during the flight, I relaxed and was able to enjoy the movements of the airplane and the view from the sky. After the flight, we were offered drinks and snacks. The transportation and office staff were also kind, making for a comfortable experience. It was a very enjoyable day, and I'm glad I participated.
2人乗セスナ60分プランを体験しました。
事前の講義、フライトとも日本語でコミュニケーションできて良かったです。
最初は緊張していましたが、飛行中、パイロットの方に操縦や地上の景色などの説明して頂くうちに緊張が解けて、飛行機の動きや空からの眺めを楽しめるようになりました。
フライト終了後に、飲み物やお菓子を頂きました。
送迎やオフィスのスタッフも親切で、快適に過ごせました。
とても楽しい1日でした。体験して良かったです。
Will was an amazing instructor. He was patient, informative and very kind. We felt safe and learned so much. Everyone at the company had exceptional customer service! We look forward to returning soon.
I had a Cessna flying experience that exceeded my expectations! The pilot was able to communicate in Japanese, which made me feel even more at ease during the experience. Additionally, I felt that everyone’s service, from the pick-up to the waiting time at the office, was excellent. I was a bit anxious about participating alone, but I had no worries at all.
Next time I come to Hawaii, I definitely want to participate in the Cessna flying experience again!
想像以上にセスナの操縦体験ができました!
パイロットの方も日本語で対応していただけたので、更に安心して体験することができました。
更に送迎からオフィスでの待ち時間まで、皆さんの対応が非常にいいと感じました。
一人で参加で不安でしたが、まったく心配いらなかったです。
次回、ハワイに来た際もぜひ、セスナ体験操縦に参加したいと思いました!
With excitement for my first experience in a Cessna, I grasped the controls and took off into the sky. The presence of a professional pilot next to me provided a sense of security, allowing me to fully enjoy the emerald green sea, the scenery, and the thrill of heading towards the horizon from above.
セスナ初体験でワクワクしながら、操縦桿を握り、空へと飛び立った。隣にプロパイロットがいる安心感があり、空からのエメラルドグリーンの海、景色、水平線に向かって進む快感を充分に味わうことができました。
Definitely give it a try! You'll understand its greatness once you experience it.
是非一度体験して!乗ってみると素晴らしさがわかります。
I have long admired flying airplanes since my youth. I had an experience here that I couldn't have in Japan. They accommodated me with training for takeoff, ascent, descent, and turns, which are all part of obtaining a license. The instructor was a young American man who graduated from a university in Japan, and he taught me very kindly.
若かりし頃から、飛行機の操縦にあこがれてました。
日本では、出来ない体験をさせていただきました。
離陸、上昇、下降、旋回と免許取得用の内容も受け入れてくださいました。
インストラクターは、アメリカ国籍で日本の大学をでた若い男の子で、
とても優しく教えて頂きました。
There are courses mainly focused on enjoying the scenery, but you can also request technical takeoffs, ascents, descents, and turns, so be sure to give it a try.
景色を楽しむ事がメインのコースもありますが、テクニカルな離陸や上昇下降、旋回とリクエスト可能ですので、是非体験してみてください。
The Japanese guide welcomed us at the hotel. They were incredibly knowledgeable and taught us a lot about various things in Hawaii, which was very educational. Listening to them was as enjoyable as piloting a Cessna. Noticing my anxious personality, the captain mostly handled the piloting for me, haha. There was a moment while waiting to land when we made some sharp turns, and it became a really great memory. Thank you very much.
日本人ガイドがホテルまでお出迎え。めちゃくちゃ物知りな方でハワイの色んなことを教えていただき、すごく学びになりました。セスナを操縦するのに匹敵するぐらい話を聞いてるのが楽しかった。ビビリな私の性格をみて、セスナはキャプテンがほとんど操縦してくれてました笑 着陸時間まちで旋回する場面があったのですが、めちゃくちゃ角度が傾き、すごくいい思い出になりました。ありがとうございました。
I think it can be hard to hear the captain's voice from the back seat, but if you can't hear it, it's better to clearly say so to enjoy it more! (laughs)
後部座席はキャプテンの声が聞きにくいことがあると思うのですが、聞こえなかったら聞こえないとハッキリ言ったほうが楽しめます笑
I had been interested in the Cessna flying experience for a while, and I finally signed up for it this time. I felt a bit anxious because we were using the large Daniel K. Inouye Airport, which I usually fly to and from Japan. However, the pre-flight lecture and the instructor during the flight were both Japanese, and they kindly taught us. I was able to enjoy sightseeing from the sky, and it was a lot of fun and a new experience. The scenery I usually see from the cabin was completely different from the view from the cockpit, and I was moved when I pulled the control stick and took off. I would love to experience it again if I have the chance.
セスナ操縦体験は前から気になっていて今回申し込みました。
離着陸が日本との往復で利用している、巨大なダニエルKイノウエ空港だったので不安になりましたが、事前の講義もフライト時の教官も日本の方で、親切に教えて頂き空からの観光もできてとても楽しく新しい経験ができました。
いつもはキャビンから見ている景色も操縦席からはまったく違う景色で操縦桿を引いて離陸したときは感動です。
また機会があれば体験したいと思いました。
The driving experience was great. The person in charge of the pick-up and drop-off was also very accommodating. However, I was worried that I couldn't confirm things immediately upon arrival at the location. It would have been even better if I had received a message the day before about which car would be picking me up.
操縦体験良かったです。
また送り迎えの担当の方の対応良かったです。
ただ現地到着してからの確認が直ぐに取れなかったのが心配でした。
また前日にどの車が迎えにくるか連絡頂けるとより良かったと思います。
My family had an awesome time flying with these professionals. They treated us very special and it was a great way to see the island. Flying over the WWII ships; from above you see what you can't on the ground. I would highly recommend this as a way to see the island. My husband, daughter and I all had a great time.
I had my first piloting experience, and they taught me very carefully! It was great to be guided through the streets of Hawaii while piloting, and I got to see views that can only be seen from above!
They also took a lot of photos, which made for wonderful memories. 😊
初めて操縦体験を行いましたが、
丁寧に教えてくれました!!
また操縦しながらもハワイの街を案内してくれて上からでしか見れない景色を見れてよかったです!
また写真もたくさん撮ってくださるので思い出作りにもなります☺️
My first experience in a Cessna. I was filled with anticipation as I headed to Oahu. However, the morning hotel pickup was canceled, so I ended up joining in the afternoon. Later, I learned from a Japanese man in his 50s who was driving us that the morning flights were canceled due to heavy fog, which made me feel lucky. This man had extensive knowledge about Hawaii, and during the 20-minute drive, we became quite familiar with the area. The airport waiting room was very clean, and there were plenty of welcoming snacks. I also encountered the cleanest restroom of my Hawaii trip there. The flight route was explained by the pilot, who seemed friendly and was also a Japanese man in his 50s. I took motion sickness medication an hour before the flight, and off we went. Onboard, the scenery was stunning, and the pilot provided a wealth of commentary over the tourist spots, which made for an exciting experience. I was worried about getting motion sickness, but it was a comfortable journey in the sky. The flight lasted about 70 minutes from takeoff to landing. We circled over the Pearl Harbor Arizona Memorial about nine times while waiting for landing clearance, which was also fun. The landing was very smooth, with less vibration than my return flight on Delta Airlines.
I would definitely use this service again if I have the opportunity!
初めてのセスナ体験。期待に胸を膨らませオアフへ。ところが朝いちホテルピックアップが不可になり午後に参加することに。後で聞いたらその日の午前は霧が深くフライトできなかったと、送迎の50代と思われる日本人男性から聞きラッキーな気分。この男性のハワイの知識が豊富で20分程のドライブでかなりハワイ通になった私たち。空港の待合室はとても綺麗でおもてなしの菓子も沢山あり、ハワイ旅行中で一番綺麗なトイレに出会ったのもこちら。フライトルート説明が機長からあり分かりやすく人柄良さそうなこちらも50代と思われる日本人男性。酔い止めを1時間前に飲み、いざフライト。機上にて景色の素晴らしさ、観光地の上での盛り沢山の機長の解説、撮影等で盛り上がり、心配していた酔いもなく快適な空の旅。離陸から着陸まで約70分。着陸許可が出るまで真珠湾アリゾナ記念館上を9回ほど旋回し、それもまた楽しい。着陸もとても上手で帰路のデルタ航空より振動がなく笑。
また機会あれば是非利用します!
I called to change the pickup location the day before, and they kindly accommodated my request. It’s a reassuring experience with a company run by Japanese people. During the drive, they provided various information about Hawaii, which was enjoyable.
Pilot Teddy Nomura also shared many sightseeing spots during the flight. He spoke very well about the first-time experience of piloting. I was able to see rainbows multiple times, which was delightful.
After a short break (with plenty of snacks and juice), they changed the return shuttle to drop us off at Ala Moana Shopping Center. They recommended some affordable shops, which made the experience even more enjoyable.
I am very grateful to the couple who run the business. I had a wonderful experience and great memories. I would love to visit again. Thank you very much.
お迎え場所を前日変更するため電話をしましたが、快く変更に応じていただきました。
日本人の方がやっている体験会社で安心感があります。
行きの車のなかでも色々とハワイの案内をして頂き楽しかったです。
パイロットの野村テディさんも飛行中 沢山観光の場所を教えていただきました。
初体験の操縦にも とても上手にお話しされてました。
何度も虹を見ることも出来楽しませていただけました。
帰りは少し休憩した後(沢山のお菓子とジュース) ホテル迄の送迎を変更していただきアラモアナショッピングセンターで下車。お手頃なショップなど教えて頂き楽しませて頂きました。
経営者のご夫婦にとても感謝しております。
とても、良い体験と良い思いをさせていただきました。
また、寄らせて頂きたいと思います。
ありがとうございました。
On the day of the experience, although things didn't go as planned due to aircraft maintenance, the staff worked hard to find a solution, and in the end, I was able to experience the flight as scheduled. I am truly grateful to all the staff.
This was my second time experiencing flight training in my life, and I can only express my amazement! I was able to hear the communication with the control tower, feel the moment of takeoff, and see the tourist spots of Hawaii from the cockpit. It was truly the best experience! Even now, I look at the photos and videos every day and remember it fondly. I definitely want to participate again the next time I go to Hawaii! Thank you so much!
当日、機体整備の関係で予定通りにいかなかったものの、何とか手配が出来ないか模索してくださり、結果的に予定通り体験操縦ができることになり、スタッフの皆様に本当に感謝しています。
人生で2回目の体験操縦。ただただ感動の一言です!管制塔とのやり取りを聞けて、自分で離陸していく瞬間を感じられて、操縦席からハワイの観光地を見れて、本当に最高でした!今も写真や動画を見ながら、毎日思い出しています。次回ハワイに行くときも必ず参加したいと思います!本当にありがとうございました!
After 25 years, my husband and I decided to take an overseas trip together, and we were considering how to explore Hawaii. By chance, my husband found a Cessna experience tour in a guidebook and made a reservation. They kindly offered to pick us up from a hotel that was outside their usual area, and they were also very prompt and helpful in our email correspondence, which made us feel at ease about the experience. We were blessed with great weather, and the views of the islands from the sky were truly spectacular and impressive! I'm really glad we decided to participate. Thank you very much.
25年振りの夫婦での海外旅行・ハワイということで島内観光をどのようにしたらよいのか考えていたなか、主人が偶然セスナ機の体験ツアーをガイドブックで見つけて予約しました。規定外のホテルまでの送迎にも応じてくださり、また事前のメールのやりとりにも親切迅速に対応下さって安心して乗ることができました。お天気にも恵まれ空からの島の景色はそれはそれは迫力ある素晴らしいものでした!思い切って参加して本当に良かったと思います。
ありがとうございました。
At the end of August, my wife and I participated together. My wife had a piloting experience. It was an expensive tour, but we thought that if we missed this opportunity, we might never get to pilot a plane again, so we signed up.
The person who picked us up was Japanese, and the pilot was also from Japan, which made us feel very secure.
The course took us around the eastern half of Oahu and lasted about an hour. Naturally, it was my wife's first time piloting a plane, and she was extremely nervous, but they provided support at the right times, so we were able to enjoy it without any dangerous moments (she got tired about two-thirds of the way through, so the pilot took over for the rest).
And surprisingly, after the flight experience, my wife forgot her phone on the sofa, but they contacted us and even delivered it to our hotel. I really appreciate the extra effort they made.
8月末に妻と二人で参加しました。妻が操縦体験をしました。高額なツアーですが、もうこの機会を逃したら飛行機の操縦なんて二度と無いかも、ということで申し込みました。
送迎をしてくれた方も日本人、またパイロットさんも日本の方で、とても安心でした。
オアフ島の東半分を周遊するコースで、ちょうど1時間ほど。当然妻も飛行機の操縦は初めてでめちゃくちゃ緊張していましたが、適時サポートしてくれるので危ないところもなく楽しめました(2/3くらいのところで疲れてしまったので、残りは操縦していただきました)。
そしてなんと、飛行体験が終わったあとソファのところに妻が携帯を忘れていってしまったのですが、連絡をくれてわざわざホテルまで届けてくれました。大変お手数おかけしました。
I was anxious until I got on, but once I flew, it was refreshing!
Even though the aircraft is small, it flies steadily.
The speed is slow enough to enjoy the scenery, and 30 minutes goes by in no time.
However, it's scary when I'm the one piloting; the aircraft responds to even the slightest movement of the control stick.
乗るまでは不安でしたが、いざ飛んでみれば気分爽快!
機体は小さくても安定した飛行です。
速度もゆっくりで景色を楽しむことができ、30分はあっという間です。
でも自分が操縦する時だけはコワいですね、操縦桿の少しの動きに機体が反応します。
Thank you! We had a wonderful flight. The more we fly, the more comfortable it becomes. Let's meet again next time.
ありがとう!素晴らしい飛行をしましたね。飛べば飛ぶほど快適になります。次回お会いしましょう。
글라이더 투어 처음으로 해 보았습니다.
긴장이 되긴 했지만, 하기를 잘 했다고 생각이 듭니다.
하늘에서 감동을 잊을 수가 없습니다.
하와이에 왔다면, 꼭~ 유인 글라이더 투어를 하시기 바랍니다.
완전 강추 입니다.~^^
무한 도전에서 나오셨던 그 아저씨...
지금은 세월이 15년이나 흘러 할아버지가 되셨지만,
같이 사진 찍어 주시면서 다양한 포즈 취하게 해 주시고 ㅎㅎ
즐겁게 사진을 찍었습니다.
다음에 또 하와이를 간다면 글라이더 투어 한번 더 하고 싶네요~^^
I have been staying in Honolulu for three consecutive years. I am spending a week here on a refreshing vacation, enjoying the cooler and more comfortable weather compared to Japan.
It has been my dream to become a pilot, and I try to experience as much flying as possible during my travels abroad. Taking off from Honolulu Airport, we headed towards the east coast via Diamond Head. The beautiful coastline took my breath away. The detailed explanations made the landing come quickly. Thank you to the driver for being so courteous from start to finish.
Finally, I have decided to start keeping a logbook. I definitely want to stop by again the next time I stay in Honolulu. Thank you! ♪
3年連続ホノルルに滞在しています。日本よりも涼しくて快適なホノルルにリフレッシュ休暇で一週間滞在しています。
パイロットになるのが夢で、海外旅行の際はできるだけ操縦体験をするようにしています。
ホノルル空港を飛び立ちダイヤモンドヘッド経由東海岸方面へ。綺麗な海岸線に心打たれます。きめ細かい説明をしていただきあっという間に着陸となりました。送迎のドライバーさんも最初から最後までご丁寧にありがとうございます。
ついに、ログブックをつけ始めることにしました。
また、ホノルルに滞在するときは必ず寄らせていただきたいです。ありがとうございました♪
The experience of seeing Diamond Head and the blue ocean from above while gripping the control stick was incredible. I was very happy that they prepared afternoon tea for us after the flight and shared videos and photos. The pickup and drop-off service on the day was also very helpful! If you're hesitating, you should definitely go for it!
操縦桿をにぎりながら上空からみたダイヤモンドヘッドと青い海の感動はすごかったです。フライト後もアフタヌーンティーを用意して頂いたり動画や写真をシェアして貰い大変嬉しかったです。当日のピックアップ、ピックダウンのサービスもとても助かりました!迷ってるなら絶対やったほうがいいですよ!!
Due to strong winds, it was said that the eastern side of the island would be quite bumpy, so after takeoff, we headed north through the center of the island and then circled around to the west. The flight start time was delayed because the fuel truck took a while to arrive, but we were able to fly for a full hour.
During the experience, I was able to hold the control stick from takeoff to landing. Takeoff and landing are difficult, so I had to assist, but I still felt like I was piloting the plane. Once we successfully took off, I was able to fly the plane freely. The instructor guided me on the route, and I maneuvered along the highway and coastline. The sensation of controlling the plane up, down, left, and right was truly moving. The instructor handled the more challenging operations of the yoke and throttle, allowing me to focus on controlling the stick.
The weather was great, and seeing Oahu from the sky was breathtaking with its rich natural beauty. At various points, the instructor introduced sightseeing spots, and I was also able to take photos while the instructor handled the piloting. Both the instructor and the staff took many photos for us. They were friendly and easy to talk to, and they were very kind. This time, the instructor was Japanese, so I was able to experience everything in Japanese, which was very helpful.
It was an unforgettable experience that will last a lifetime. I am very satisfied. Thank you!
風が強く島の東側は大変揺れるとのことだったので、離陸後、島の中央を北上しそこから西周りで島を一周しました。フライトの開始時間は給油車がなかなか来なくて遅れましたが、しっかり1時間飛べました。
体験操縦ですが、離陸から着陸まで操縦桿を握ることが出来ました。
離陸、着陸は難しいので、手を添える形にはなりますが、十分操縦をしている感覚を得られます。無事離陸したら、自由に飛行機を操れるようになります。教官からルートを教えていただき、高速道路や海岸線に沿って飛ぶように操縦しました。上下左右に自分で飛行機を操縦している感覚は感動ものです。初心者には難しいヨークやスロットルの操作は教官がやってくださるので操縦桿の操作に集中出来ます。
天気が良く、空から見るオアフ島は自然豊かで絶景でした。要所要所で、教官が観光名所を紹介してくださり、また操縦を教官に任せて写真を撮ることも出来ます。教官やスタッフさんも写真を沢山撮ってくださいました。教官もスタッフさんも気さくな方で話しやすく大変親切にしてくださいました。今回はスタッフに加え、教官も日本人だったのでオール日本語で体験出来、助かりました。
一生の思い出となる体験が出来ました。
大変満足しています。ありがとうございました
Since childhood, I have dreamed of flying and wanted to become a pilot, but my mother, who was in charge of career guidance at home, dismissed my aspirations with a simple "no." I had been simmering with this dream for a long time, but after watching Mr. Onoda pilot a Cessna in Hawaii on YouTube, I thought, "This is it!" and I was inspired. After 50 years, my "dream" came true in Hawaii. Due to the weather, we were initially scheduled for the west course, but thanks to the captain's decisive choice, we flew the east course instead. Peering down at Diamond Head from above was the most amazing experience. The staff were incredibly kind, which made it even better. They provided round-trip transportation from the hotel, and we had such lively conversations that there was no time to feel nervous. I said my goodbyes, looking forward to next year, and it was a pleasant farewell. I've already booked my hotel, so I look forward to coming back.
子供の頃から飛行機に憧れ、パイロットになりたいと実家の進路指導担当の母に申し出てもダメの一言で片付けられてしまいました。以来ずっと燻っていましたが、Youtubeで小野田さんがハワイでセスナ機を操縦するのを観て、これだ!と膝を叩きました。今回50年の時を経て、ハワイで“夢”が叶いました。天気の関係で西コースの予定でしたが、機長の英断で東コースを飛びました。ダイヤモンドヘッドを上から覗き込むなんて最高の体験です。スタッフの皆さんがまた親切でホントに良かったです。ホテルから往復送迎して頂きましたが、会話が弾んで緊張する暇も有りませんでした。また来年もお世話になりますと挨拶をして心地良いお別れをしました。もうホテルは予約しましたので、またお願いします。
I was very worried about participating alone, but I was able to take many photos, and since flying a Cessna has been my dream, it seems I had a lot of fun. I truly appreciate the support provided and the quick responses to my inquiries. Thank you very much!
1人での参加なのでとても心配していましたが、写真も沢山撮って頂き本人も
セスナ操縦が夢だったのでとても楽しかったようです。サポートをきちんとして頂き問い合わせにもすぐに答えてくださって本当に感謝しています。ありがとうございました!
The explanation from the pilot was unhelpful. I was told to take the controls, so I grabbed the yoke, but I was cautioned not to grip it too tightly to avoid conflict. When I tried to level the plane, I was met with opposing inputs. The experience of piloting was not enjoyable at all; I was just resting my hands on the controls. Ultimately, I was told that if I kept turning left, I would be reprimanded. I wasn't actually steering; I was just resting my hands, which is why it kept turning left. The inability to assess the situation and the poor explanations were frustrating. I was also instructed to enjoy myself more. I am enjoying myself, but please do not dictate people's emotions.
I fully understand that beginners cannot be entrusted with the controls. However, if you are promoting an experience of piloting, this approach is inappropriate.
The information I received from the driver prior to the experience was completely different. There was no explanation on how to read the instruments. There was a brief explanation on the ground, but that was it.
I understand that communicating with air traffic control can be challenging. However, it is part of the job, and failing to satisfy customers is second-rate. What do you mean by "enjoy it more" when you are so brusque?
The conversation with K, who was assigned today, was the most enjoyable part. The pilot only used technical jargon and showed no willingness to provide clear explanations. I have hundreds of hours of experience with Japan's national license, as an examiner, and in drone training.
You must assess what kind of people come for the experience and provide explanations tailored to each individual. Giving the same brusque explanation to everyone is meaningless.
If I had known the level of the participants, I could have skipped basic explanations like pitch, roll, and yaw, and focused on more important details.
There was a lack of communication between the driver and the pilot. I was instructed not to use yaw, but that is a separate issue altogether.
K later supplemented all the difficult terms. He shared many stories from wartime and emphasized the importance of passing knowledge to the next generation. Without K, I would have wanted a full refund for the experience.
In the car on the way back, the woman in the passenger seat didn't say a word; I wondered what she was there for.
Thank you very much, K and the driver, for your help.
パイロットの説明が不親切。
操縦しろと言うから舵を握る、舵を握れば、喧嘩しないように強く握るな。
水平にしようと舵をきると当て舵をされる。
操縦は全く面白くありませんでした。ただ舵に手を添えているだけ。最終的に左にずっと舵をきっていると注意される。
舵をきっているのではなく、手をそえているだけだから左に曲がっていくだけです。
状況判断も出来ず、説明が下手くそ。
もっと楽しめと指図もされました。
楽しんでいます。人の感情を指示しないでください。
初心者に舵をまかせられないのは重々承知の上です。しかし、体験操縦を謳い文句にしているのであれば、このようなやり方は不適切です。
事前に送り迎えのドライバーに聞いていた内容とは全く異なります。
計器の見方も全く説明なし。地上ではさわり程度に説明がありましたが。
管制官との連絡が大変なのは分かります。しかし、仕事なので、客を満足させられないのは二流、三流です。ぶっきらぼうなくせに何がもっと楽しめだ。
本日から配属になったKさんとの会話が一番楽しかったです。パイロットは、専門用語ばかりを口にし、分かりやすい説明をする気もなし。こちらは日本の国家ライセンス、終了審査員、ドローンの講習を何百時間も行っています。
体験に来た方がどのような人なのかを確認し、それぞれの人に応じた説明をしなければなりません。ぶっきらぼうな同じ説明を万人にしても意味は無し。
体験に来た方のレベルを聞いておけば、pitch、roll、yawなどの基本的な説明を省きもっと重要な説明が出来たと思います。
ドライバーの方とパイロットのコミュニケーション不足です。yawは使わないなどと指示していましたが、そもそもそれ以前の問題です。
Kさんは難しい単語を後から全て補足してくれました。戦争の時の話、次の世代に受け継がなければならないことをたくさん教えてくださいました。Kさんがいなければ、体験費用を全額返金願いたいところです。
帰りの車の中で助手席に乗った女性、一言も話さず、何のために乗っているのか。
Kさん、ドライバーの方本当にお世話になりました。ありがとうございました。
It was an awesome experience and I loved the sight seeing and seeing Hawaii from a totally different view. The co-pilot was very helpful and the staff were very kind and treated us very well and respectfully while offering many things. I enjoyed very much! Thank you for the amazing experience, I will hope to do again in the future.
It was an amazing flight with very professional pilots. We were able to stay up for 40 minutes and catch amazing views of the ocean runway and mountains. I would highly recommend this experience to anyone. Thank you for treating us like family and we will forever be friends. Thank you Mr. Bill!!!
We appreciate this enthusiastic review, but we hope the SECOND word in the above text was "WAS" instead of "wasn't". That one word would negate all of the rest of the text.
Once we took off and reached a safe altitude, the piloting experience began. The piloting time was quite long, with 40 minutes of the 60-minute flight dedicated to actually flying.
It's the best experience to be able to pilot without a license. It is a bit pricey, but I would love to participate again.
The flight route is determined by the weather on the day, and I flew along the west coast route from Pearl Harbor to Haleiwa, the westernmost point at Kaena Point, and Ko Olina.
The area near Kaena Point was clear and sunny, and it was such a beautiful place that I was more captivated by the scenery than by flying.
I was told that I could take photos freely, but I was having so much fun piloting that I didn't have time for that. However, the instructor took quite a few photos, and the ground staff also took pictures when we departed.
Additionally, as long as it doesn't cover your ears, you can always use an action camera for filming.
離陸して、安全な状態になると操縦体験スタート。
操縦時間は結構長くて60分中40分は操縦していました。
免許なしで、実際に操縦できるのは、最高のひとことです。
値段はしますが、また参加したいです。
フライトルートは当日の天候で決まり、
私はパールハーバーからハレイワ、最西端のカエナポイント、コオリナと周る西海岸ルートでした。
カエナポイント付近は快晴で、操縦よりも景色に目が奪われる素晴らしい場所でした。
写真撮影は自由に撮影OKと言われていましたが、操縦が楽しくてそんな時間はありませんが、
教官の方が結構撮影してくれて、
さらに、出発の際には地上スタッフが撮影してくれてました。
また、耳に被らなければ、アクションカメラ撮影も常時OK。
