Overview

Our flight simulators simulate real-life controls inside a cockpit and are not toys. Our knowledgeable staff members guide you through several types of simulators using different aircraft and flying over different locations. Unless otherwise indicated, the simulators can only be used while under the supervision of a qualified Wings of Eagles staff member.

Our Virtual Realty (VR) equipment is an Oculus based system that can take its users to a totally different world! Users of the VR system will first experience four (4) mini adventures before they are put into training mode to learn the use of the hand controllers. After the controllers are mastered users can then select from various applications to explore!
