Client feedback

“… Beyond the fun aspect of the flight simulators, I think you have a very interesting niche for companies looking for a genuine Team Building experience, going beyond a simple fun afternoon with colleagues : a real, complex mission to carry out collectively, while having fun… The complex mission simulation with its different levels of command (Mission Command–Comanche–Goose–Pilot) and the different aircraft involved (Airbus, F-16, F-14), each with its own secondary missions — proved incredibly rich for teamwork…
Many lessons to be drawn for how a team operates, whether in projects or daily operational activities.
The post-mission debrief is a goldmine of insights…”

They and many others have already trusted us…

Don't hesitate any longer.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know to organise your Flight Experience team building.

The team building experience

How do the team building sessions work?
Our team building activities immerse your teams in an ultra-realistic flight environment where communication, stress management and decision-making are essential. Your staff become pilots of an airliner or a fighter jet and work together to complete their mission.
Why choose Flight Experience for a corporate event?
Our F-14 TOP GUN, F-16, F-18 and Airbus A320 flight simulators can fly together on the same virtual airspace network: an original and unifying activity that energises your teams in an exceptional setting. Every session is run by real (ex-)Belgian Air Component fighter pilots, who create a bespoke experience aligned with your company's values.
What programmes do you offer for companies?
Two bespoke programmes:
  • Discovery and Fun — everyone takes the controls of an airliner or a fighter jet.
  • Team Mission — your staff coordinate a live aerial combat mission together. Communication, decision-making and cohesion under pressure guaranteed.
Can the activity be personalised?
Absolutely. Scenarios are fully customisable: briefings in your company's branding, specific objectives (communication, leadership, cohesion). Our Team Mission programme is inspired by NATO's Tactical Leader Programme (TLP).
What is the TLP (Tactical Leader Programme)?
The TLP is NATO's most comprehensive training exercise for multinational pilots. Our Team Mission team building is inspired by it: mission briefing, hierarchical roles (Mission Command, pilots), collaborative execution, debriefing. Your teams experience a leadership exercise based on real military methods, run by genuine (ex-)Belgian Air Component fighter pilots.

Groups of 5 to 40 people, depending on the programme. Network simulation sessions with multiple aircraft are organised in rotations so that everyone experiences the controls and takes part in the team mission.
