Emirates opens flight attraction
By admin


Emirates is set to open an indoor aviation attraction in London that will broaden the airline's UK presence.

Opening in July, the Emirates Aviation Experience will be a permanent educational and interactive look at commercial air travel.

“This high-tech facility will bring to London a one of a kind insight into the dynamic world of aviation,” Emirates Airline president Tim Clark said.

“The purpose of this centre is to provide a fun, yet educational, overview of just what it takes to successfully get a 560 tonne aircraft off the ground and 40,000 feet into the sky," Clark added.

The experience will have the commercial flight simulators, including two Airbus 380s and two Boeing 777s that have landscape visuals and visitors can simulate take off and landing.

"Our aim is to explain the intricate science of modern aviation, in a hands-on, entertaining and instructive environment,” Clark said.
