{"product_id":"luxury-cirrus-discovery-flight-for-two","title":"Luxury Cirrus SR22 Discovery Flight (60 Minutes)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe same hour over Los Angeles, flown in a Cirrus SR22 — a glass-panel, leather-seated, side-yoke airplane with a parachute built into the airframe. You fly it, with an FAA-certificated instructor in the right seat, departing Van Nuys Airport: $499 for one flyer. Want to share it? Switch on Bring A Passenger for $100 more and your guest rides along on a headset, hearing everything.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePeople book this for two reasons. The occasion — an anniversary, a proposal, a birthday that deserves more than dinner. And the airplane. The SR22 is a modern high-performance single that feels closer to a well-made car than to a trainer: big glass displays instead of round dials, a side yoke, and a smoother ride at speed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eNone of which changes what it is: a real flying lesson with the controls in your hands, not a chauffeured tour. No experience needed, no medical certificate required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Route Of Flight\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eYou depart Van Nuys over the Sepulveda Basin, climbing toward the Mulholland ridge. Cross it and the city arrives all at once: the Hollywood Sign, Griffith Observatory, then the LA River east past Dodger Stadium and on to the downtown towers at 2,500 to 3,500 feet. Then back over the hills to Van Nuys.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"yfla-table-wrap\"\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"yfla-spec-table\"\u003e\n\u003ccaption\u003eThe 60-Minute Cirrus Route, Leg By Leg\u003c\/caption\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eLeg\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWhat You See\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eVan Nuys to Sepulveda Basin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eThe departure climb, the Valley underneath\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMulholland ridge\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWhere the whole basin opens up\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHollywood Sign and Griffith Observatory\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAn angle no hiking trail gives you\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLA River and Dodger Stadium\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eThe channel running east, the ballpark above it\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDowntown Los Angeles\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eThe towers at 2,500 to 3,500 feet, then home\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAir traffic control and the weather shape the exact track on the day, and your instructor briefs the plan before you get in.
