Take to the skies anywhere in the world on these 737 Flight Simulator Experiences at Sywell! This professional simulator is based at Sywell aerodrome in the heart of Northamptonshire and offers top level simulated flight training for us mere enthusiasts, as well as real pilots wanting to expand their experience of flying in different scenarios (think fog over Beijing, or a hail storm over Manhattan at night).

The standard of equipment on this simulator is second to none. Nothing is for show, as all the buttons, knobs and levers in this glass cockpit Boeing 737 works; from the oxygen and pressurisation controls to the autopilot and Flight Management Computer (CDU). Even the throttle is motorised and there are moving trim wheels too. And yes, you get to switch on the seatbelt signs!

The great thing about your 737 flight simulator experience at Sywell is that what you do and where you fly is entirely up to you. You can either do a full sector (ie a flight from A to B), or multiple scenarios to maximise on the take offs and landings (what most simulator flyers prefer). There is even room for a guest in the fold down extra seat, known as the' jump seat' in the commercial airline trade.
