Virtual Jet Centre

Virtual Jet Centre offers Human Factors training, team development events and corporate hospitality as well as flight experiences in our motion platform 737-800 medium heavy jet flight simulator. The centre is owned and operated by Captain Andy Wilkins, who was with Thomson Airways for nearly 20 years, flying both Airbus and Boeing Aircraft. His first love has always been training, hence the idea behind the centre, but the idea was also to offer the general public the chance to come and experience the real thrill of flying a jet. Featuring a state-of-the-art 737-800 flight simulator, Andy and his team of commercial pilots and virtual aviation experts offer unique team building and corporate entertainment packages to ensure a full-throttle experience is had by all. Taking control of a 737-800 jet airplane, albeit of the virtual kind, is no easy task. Find out which of your team members have a calm disposition under pressure and which do not. Entertainment and team building packages can be tailor-made to your company or department’s precise objectives, from boosting staff morale to increasing team performance and efficiencies. Or maybe you already have a great team and would like to send your high flyers on an unforgettable experience as a reward for outstanding personal achievement. Whatever your goal, what is certain at the Virtual Jet Centre is a perfect balance of fun and personal development and a warm welcome as soon as you step into the departure lounge. Virtual Jet Centre is also making a name for itself in effectively managing people’s aviophobia through its Fear of Flying courses – participants have been overjoyed to control what can be a life-limiting fear through dedicated one-to-one sessions with Captain Wilkins. In addition, a host of professional qualifications are on offer for prospective pilots and cabin crew.
