Absolutely fantastic visit to Ness Aviation today with my son for a birthday treat.
The whole set-up they have is amazing far beyond what we expected 😁
Krys the instructor is amazing!!!
He guided Connor through the whole flight, from take off to landing, pointing out landmarks and points of interest along the way 😁
He then gave him the experience of landing at different times of day and conditions. (this made his day btw😁)
Thank you Ness Aviation for an awesome day out we'll deffo be back soon 😉

My husband got a voucher for his birthday and we finally got around to using it last week. What an amazing experience for him & for me (passenger). From the minute you walk in the door the experience starts, with your name on the departure board and "checking in". We were greeted by Krys and he was fantastic, giving a briefing before going through to the simulator so that my husband would know what to expect. He thoroughly enjoyed his time flying San Fran to LA, from taxiing to the runway, taking off and practising multiple landings in different scenarios. As a passenger you really feel the experience too, sitting like you're in a plane with views out the window. Definitely recommend this experience! Thanks again 😊

Excellent experience, brilliant instruction, would highly recommend a visit, we will definitely be back again, thank you Ness Aviation 🛫🛫

Had a fantastic time in the 737 SIM, Krys making things easy and talking me through the whole flight. What an excellent set up, not only with the 737 but with the new building and the other simulators and VR. Would highly recommend them for SIM/VR fans and anyone with an interest in aviation.

My dad recently had a 2 hour flight simulator with Ness Aviation for his birthday and he absolutely loved it!! I could not fault the whole experience. The team at Ness Aviation even allowed me to come in to take photos of my dad in the pilot's seat. I would highly recommend booking with Ness Aviation as it truly was a fantastic experience for my dad and even me!! I can't wait for my turn!! 5 stars!!

Spent a very pleasant 2 hours in the simulator yesterday afternoon and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. With some aviation background my flight was ‘tailored’ to suit my request. Excellent instruction from Richard who was very patient and understanding. I was amazed at the outstanding graphics. Would certainly recommend the experience to anyone. Very much like the real thing. Go for it. You won’t be disappointed.

Great visit to Ness Aviation with. my two boys who received vouchers for their Xmas. They both said it was even better than they thought it would be, and they hadn't stopped asking about it since they got the vouchers. Their instructor, Neil, was very good, explaining everything to them and keeping them right while they flew. They even got a couple of landing attempts wit just the two of the at the controls. They are already asking when they can go back. Highly recommended.

Took a flight today from San Francisco to Las Vegas with Ness Aviation. The approach and landing was stunning. This was a better experience than I ever imagined. Would recommend this to anyone interested in aviation. Very professional service and most enjoyable, it’s my opinion that even the best pilots could come away having learned something from this experience. Thank you and maybe see you again sometime. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Fantastic experience for Dad and Son We have taken our son (9) along twice to Ness Aviation for a 1 hour experience and both times he has had the time of his life. He's plane obsessed and wants to be a pilot, and short of getting in a real plane cockpit, this is easily the best way to experience flying with the super realistic graphics and fully working 737 cockpit controls. The pilots are friendly and really patient with him and happy to answer all his questions (he asks plenty of those!) and they have the skills and knowledge you would expect to ensure you experience the most realistic simulation. I would 100% recommend these guys to people of all ages, and even I, with no big interest in planes, found it utterly fascinating!
01/12/2021
For anybody interested in flying this is definitely worth trying . A great set up and a tremendous experience . Krys is extremely helpful and shows you through the whole process . The definition on the view from the cockpit is fantastic . Part of my flight involved flying over London and seeing all the sights was great . I’m sure I will go again .
29/11/2021
excellent service, great set up. 10/10 100% recommend.
im coming back!!

Flew from Trondheim to Bodo today. A huge thanks to the Ness Aviation team who made me feel welcome from the start. What a set up…. Awesome!! Thankyou so much guys. 👍. Sorry about the nose wheel!!!!!

Received a gift voucher for my birthday. Had a brilliant time, so realistic! Chris was great at keeping me from crashing😂
Highly recommend this for someone looking for a different gift........ Loved it!

Excellent flight again, it’s the best experience, it’s great having 1:1 scale hands on (makes a huge difference especially if like myself You still use the hat switch to look round the flight deck) Can’t thank ness aviation enough for there help and being very accommodating
28/10/2021
We had a great time at the simulator yesterday afternoon, after finally using gift voucher! my boy loved it to and wants to book one for himself!
Would definitely try it again

Had a session today and it was amazing. Just like the real cockpit, all the controls, the sounds, the graphics! Krystian was fantastic at explaining everything- so worth doing.
If you’ve even thought about it- get it booked. Brilliant fun.

The experience I had at Ness aviation gave me that true simulation experience I was after. The simulator is so realistic and the graphics are amazing. Even hearing the cabin crew through the speakers when I turned off the seatbelt sign!! I can’t wait to do it again. Get booking everyone!!

Fantastic experience - I would highly recommend it to anyone who has an interest in flying. Pete explained everything very clearly which made it less daunting given that I was in full control!

25/08/2021
FIRST CLASS! Impressive real life cockpit pilot experience with a super instructor who put our girls at ease straight away. Choose any airport in the world and let your aviation dream take flight. We were able to spectate and take photos also which was a real bonus. Highly recommend.
23/07/2021
Had an amazing two hour flight from Vienna to Innsbruck and back again with Kyrs and Neil this morning!!! If I could give more than 5 stars I would have. They were both very patient with me and I thoroughly enjoyed myself. I have used a few fixed based simulators in the past, but this one ranks at the top of my list! Visuals were amazing and the attention to detail was fantastic. Bit of a bumpy landing into Innsbruck, and then a really action packed and exciting approach and landing into Vienna with only one engine! We all walked away from both landings 😁
Whether you are a avid Flight enthusiast or new to this sort of adventure I cannot recommend Ness Aviation enough. Top marks Guys and I will definitely be back again as soon as possible! 😁👍🏻🛫

Took my 8 year old boy up today. And he loved it! Highly recommend. Proper cockpit and realistic flight simulator made for a very as near real experience for him. Patient co pilot! Explained all the switches etc and offered great guidance for takeoffs and landings. Will be going back.

28/05/2021
Superb, get along there! Krys takes you through the whole process of starting a 737 from cold, entering a flight plan, taxiing, takeoff, cruising, landing, the whole thing. The detail in the cockpit is superb and the whole experience is just fantastic. Can't recommend this enough, if you've even a passing interest in planes or just want to try something different, give this a go. You absolutely will not be disappointed.

I have just used my voucher for 1 hour with Ness Aviation.
The flight experience was so realistic, I honestly felt I had flown to Chicago.
I highly recommend this experience, will be looking to book my next flight.
Perfect gift for everyone, tick off bucket list.
Krystian makes the experience so easy,enjoyable, exciting.
Thank you.


This was an amazing experience. Once you are in the seat you forget you are in Inverness and are immediately immersed in the sights and sounds of a real aircraft. I'd recommend Ness aviation to anyone with an interest in flying. I could have spent the whole day there.

Just had the best experience flying from Inverness to Manchester.
Flew in the daytime /dark even a bit of cloud and rain.
An amazing bit of entertainment right on our doorstep.
An absolute must for everyone and anyone.🛫✈️🛬


Brilliant experience of flying a simulator with this fully replicated Boeing 737 flight deck. Great instruction from Krys in planning flight routes and guiding you through your flight. I booked a 1.5 hour session and could have stayed there all day!
A highly recommended experience for anyone interested in flying or as a gift of something different for someone. You won't be disappointed!

Brilliant experience! This was my first real Sim experience so I went for the 1.5 hour session and was not disappointed! Great assistance from my instructor in planning the flight routes between Inverness, Dublin, Manchester and London Heathrow. From start up to taxi-ing to the runway, take-off and landing it was a great realistic insight into being Captain of a Boeing 737. I got extra time at the controls as a small software glitch froze the flight to Manchester but I just gained more experience of taking off.
I would highly recommend this state of the art technology experience to anyone interested in flying or even a nice gift of something different for a special person, you won't be disappointed!

I thoroughly enjoyed my time in this flight simulator. Its an incredibly realistic set up and you really do feel like you're flying the real thing. From the bumps as you taxi along the tarmac to the jolt as the gear locks in the down position, you're totally immersed in the experience. I even got genuinely nervous when a baggage cart came a little close during the push back. Krys is a great instructor who has left me feeling as if, should there be an emergency need for a passenger to land the plane on my next flight, I'll be rushing to the cockpit like some sort of hero, shouting "Don't worry, I'm a fully trained pilot. I'll save you all". I had a blast. Thank you Krys for a fabulous afternoon.
15/11/2020

This is an absolutely amazing experience to have in Inverness! It’s fun, exhilarating and something just a bit different! Totally ticked the box of my adventurous side! Where to next I wonder....✈️✈️✈️✈️✈️✈️✈️

Gift for Dad for his birthday, 2 hour session cold and dark start, two leg flight with shut down as well, great experience, dad really enjoyed it, even just watching I was impressed, friendly helpful instructor made the experience all the better,

My 3 boys and I went to enjoy the flying experience.
All 3 boys loved the experience.
The demonstration and explanation of how everything works was fantastic and helped the boys feel at ease.
All boys flew a leg and did great.
Would highly recommend to everyone.
Thanks Krys


My son had great experience at Ness Aviation! After an introduction to the workings of the cockpit, he flew from Gatwick to Heathrow then around Dubai. Krystian was friendly and accomodating. The simulator is very impressive, feels like the real thing! A really great addition to the Highlands...100% will be back!
10/10/2020

Just been for a fly at Ness Aviation.. Loved it! it feels like the real deal. Wow it is not easy and a lot to think about. Challenge your head, go on! i am back again on Sunday. Great! Good lad doing the coaching as well didn't even complain when i broke the front landing gear!

Flying without wings! I've never flown a plane before but after having a shot at the 737 Simulator, I feel as if the next time I'm on a Ryanair flight, I could chap on the cockpit door and ask the Captain for a shot
Krys, gets you to do all the pre flight checks pilots go through, flicking switches, turning dials and inputting the flight information into the planes computer. There's even a button to let the passengers on board. When you do that, you actually hear sounds of people boarding and flight attendants going about their jobs.
This experience is very realistic. The simulator is an exact replica of a 737 cockpit. At times you have to remind yourself you are not actually flying a plane, it's that realistic.
The graphics outside the windows on the screens make you feel as if you are actually flying, although it's hard to enjoy the views as you are focused on trying to keep the plane level and in the air, using the flight monitors
If you are looking for something different to give to someone as a gift , then look no further than booking a flight with Ness Aviation
Trust me you will not be disappointed
10/10

Pilot for the night This is a truly amazing experience and a must for anyone that is wanting to experience what it feels like to fly a plane! Although it’s a simulation it sends a rush of adrenaline through your body when you are taking off to going through all the procedures during the flight and for me the best bit was landing! Had a brilliant flight taking off from Inverness and a short trip to Edinburgh! Then to finish off the session we took off at night time from Las Vegas ( the scenery was amazing) and about turned to land back in Vegas and we even parked the plane up for the night.
Again this is a must for anyone who is interested and it will be money well spent.
Also you couldn’t ask for a better host and owner of Ness Aviation, truly polite, and extremely talented guy.✈️

Hour flight Had a great experience! Couldn’t recommend Krystian enough! Happy to explain how everything works and why! Not just a game but an experience. Can’t wait to get back in the air! Thanks! 🙂
06/10/2020
What a trip!! Fantastic experience! From the moment you sit in the cockpit, you are in awe!. The set up is both amazing and scary at first but as soon as all is explained you are made to feel at ease. To choose your favourite destination makes it special but to actually fly the plane there yourself.....speechless. You get such a buzz from the take off that it's a relief to regain your composure during the cruising time. Your pulse rate then goes sky high again when you go into your descent, seeing familiar landmarks whilst trying to concentrate on the landing procedures.
I will definitely be booking another trip!.

I recently did a session in the Ness Aviation Simulator, WOW, what an experience! The entire simulator really is the 'real' thing. Every input and control is 100% accurate and replicates the real aeroplane incredibly well. The visuals are outstanding and the instructor, Chris, adapts the level to that of the visitor. Highly recommended to anyone with any interest in aviation.

Just finished my first time in the simulator with Krystian! Unreal experience! Had never done anything like that before and found it really enjoyable! We done a few flight tests including A night loop around Vegas! Once I got used to some of the controls (with a little help) it became easier and I gained confidence! Even managed to land in Vegas safely! Highly recommend it for anyone who enjoys flying and thought of themselves as a modern day “maverick” or anyone who is a nervous flyer, Krys explained how many of the safety features can help a pilot land safely and for me who’s a bit nervous when it comes to flying it was rather reassuring! Not everyday you get a chance to fly a 737!
12/09/2020

AMAZING experience, 10/10!
I have zero experience with flight simulators so found the amount of controls quite daunting but Krystian explained everything in detail and gave clear instructions as to what to do and I successfully managed a slightly bumpy taxi, take off and landing with a quick loop around the mountains by Innsbruck airport, Austria, and it was incredible. So unbelievably realistic I truly felt I was onboard an actual plane and had been in flight. This experience will definitely cater for the novices like myself as well as experienced domestic pilots wishing to have a bash at commercial flying. I cannot recommend Ness Aviation highly enough.
