A Discovery Flight, or introductory flight, provides an opportunity for someone that may never have been flying, to simply try it out. The flight will be with a certified flight instructor who will be able to answer almost any flying related questions you have. We will wear headsets to communicate during the roughly forty-five-minute flight and the instructor will encourage you to participate as much as possible, depending upon your skill and level of comfort, of course. The flight is intended to be a casual and fun introduction to flying.

ABSI Aerospace & Defense was founded with the goal of delivering rapidly executable acquisition options to assist acquisition managers in supplying the warfighter with critical UAS technologies and training. We understand the challenges created by the rapid requirements tempo and the extended procurement process. And we know that non-program funding that expires rapidly and is nearly impossible to execute doesn’t just put programs at risk… It puts lives at risk.
We understand the problem because it was our problem too. And we formed ABSI Aerospace & Defense because we are passionate about providing a solution.
