Long time no see everybody!

Martinair have a flying school in Lelystad, Holland. And they have this thing where you first have a 30mn lesson, and then you get to fly an airplane. I got this as a birthday gift from my folks.
My question(s) is:
Have anyone of you done this? If you have, what airplane will you be flying.

Hi Doctor long-time-no-see indeed!
How the devil are you? Nice pressie.
I personally got flying with the RAF (de Havilland Chipmunks), but some of my friends have done it this way, and they all rate it as a brilliant day out and it took a week to get the mad grin off their faces Wink

There are two types of aeroplane, Spitfires and everything else that wishes it was a Spitfire!

I hope they're not turning you loose after 30 min. (Swedes must be fast learners). If I understand correctly . I did something simular before getting started in my flight school. They flew me around for about a half hour to 45 mins. to Show me what I was going to learn. i think it was also to see if I was going to lose my lunch or my marbles. They let me take the controls and try to fly abit. Long story short. They hooked me and I just HAD to get my license.
It was Great fun.
