PULSE Experience Pilot for one day in Madrid
Only during turbulence, when the passenger next to you rolls his eyes and digs his nails into your arm, do you feel like you're flying.
However, when you get into a small plane, like the ones we use in the PULSE 'Pilot for one Day' experience, and you take the controls, that's when you really understand what flying is all about.
At PULSE Aviation School, we are convinced that this experience is a decisive factor in finally making the decision to become a pilot.
Also if you already know that becoming a pilot is your dream, but you still don't know whether to embark on this important route with us...
What do you think? Shall we try flying together?
Yevdokia Bershanskaia, one of the ‘Night Witches’, who were the terror of the Nazis in World War II.
I’ll tell you about it below.
Let's talk about understanding what it means to fly. Or rather, how would you feel if I told you that, during the Second World War, there was a night bombing regiment, piloted by Russian women who, having no other choice, made their underwear out of the silk from the parachutes of the German airmen they shot down? Imagine the look on Hitler's face at such humiliation
They moved like flying cats in the night.
And also because the noise of the wings of the planes they were flying reminded the Germans of the noise of a broom.
Speaking of the planes they flew, and here we get to the point of "understanding what flying means"...
These women, who were between 17 and 22 years old, flew biplanes made of plywood and canvas, with an open cockpit and a glass shield that did not protect them from the strong wind or enemy bullets.
They flew at 120 km/h, at night, without maps or radios, and at temperatures so low that if they touched the fuselage, they ran the risk of literally sticking to the plane.
All this dressed in men’s uniforms and boots so big that they had to stuff them with pillowcases to keep them from flying away, quite literally.
That is what I mean by really understanding what it means to fly.
And you, if you enjoy the 'Pilot for one day' experience, you will understand it too.
Of course, there will not be any risk of bombing, nor risk of freezing.
Pulse, Pilot for one day experience is a controlled and 100% safe adventure that will provide you with…
- An adrenaline rush and an experience of a lifetime. In other words: what you will one day tell your grandchildren, if you have them.
- That 360º panoramic view, which only an animal as powerful as the eagle has from up there, and which will give you a perspective of what life is all about.
- The feeling that you can reach as high as you want to go.
Do you have Leonardo di Caprio in mind when in 'Titanic' he opens his arms on the bow of the ship and shouts that he is the king of the world? Well, just that.
- The opportunity to confirm definitively that the air is your habitat and that you are willing to work hard to become a pilot.
- Get an idea of what it's like to be a pilot, get to know the procedures before you get in the plane and other aspects that you will later study in depth if you start your career.
- don't get too comfortable, you won't just be a passenger. You will also take the controls of the plane and, together with your instructor, you will monitor the flight instruments and engine parameters in the cockpit.
- Not only to find out if PULSE is the school you are looking for, but also to give us the opportunity to get to know you and to assess whether you are the student we want to train into a pilot.
- Mull over the idea of whether a career as a pilot is what you want to do even before you are 17 years old. Of course, if you are between 16 and 18 years old, you will have to be authorised and accompanied by a parent or legal guardian.
Very few people have ever flown in a small plane. In the planes you normally travel in, you hardly know you are flying. In a single-engine plane, you are well aware of it. Especially if it's a windy day...
- The opportunity to share this initiation experience with someone special: your father, your mother, your partner, your best friend? Shall we go to the cinema? No, let's go flying together around the Sierra de Madrid. The companion is included in the price...
- I don't know if you have ever meditated, but for many pilots, meditating is flying. When they get on a plane they forget about the rest of the world and focus on what they have to be focused on, the flight. So maybe you'll save yourself a few yoga classes...
- You can also save the 444€ that it costs to be a 'Pilot for a day' at PULSE, if you finish the experience determined to start your pilot career with us. We will deduct this amount from your registration fee to train as a pilot in our school.
In short, the 'Pilot for a day' experience at PULSE will not only allow you to experience what it is like to fly for real, but also to enjoy an unforgettable experience together with that special person who supports your dream of becoming a pilot, while you take the opportunity to confirm that the sky is your environment, get to know our school from the inside and, hopefully, make the decision to start your career as a pilot with us.
It's wrong for us to say so, but we think it's a small price to pay for what you're getting.

Last question…
We are not fat-phobic or megalophobic.
The fact that you can't enjoy this experience if you weigh more than 115 kg or are taller than 1.95 cm is only a question of safety and the size of the aircraft.
I will tell you that David, PULSE´s chief commander, who for a while worked as a private aviation pilot, once had to carry good old Gasol on a flight from Barcelona to Bilbao.
Gasol is 2 metres and a few centimetres tall.
So they had to adapt the plane’s cabin so that this basketball giant could travel.
This, in a private aircraft flight, and for just one passenger, is feasible. When it comes to the aircraft of the school's fleet and to fly them for a day, it is unfortunately not possible.
If you are neither a basketball giant nor a boxing heavyweight, you might like to become a 'Pilot for a day' with us...
