Before the virtual flight, experienced instructors guide students through a classroom course on helicopter basics, revealing the secrets of takeoff, landing, and hovering. Trainees take a seat in the two-person cockpit simulator, perform a preflight check on the cockpit's myriad of gauges, and either lift off or press buttons at random in search of a secret code to reach the Boss flight. The unit accommodates passengers up to 275 pounds and does not have an age or height restriction, creating a unique opportunity to test skills on the controls without the risks and fears associated with actual flying. Front and side window view screens project the distant lights of the Vegas Strip or the breathtaking skyline of downtown Manhattan so students can find out firsthand if there's anything stuck up the Statue of Liberty's nose.
