The document outlines a lesson plan to familiarize students with flight in a small aircraft. The aims are to experience flight in a small plane and see local landmarks from above. The procedure will involve walking to the plane, a pre-flight inspection, pre-flight checks, taxiing, and a short flight where students can see the local area from the sky. Students will also have an opportunity to fly the plane. Important safety procedures like lookout and aircraft control transfer will be practiced.
