SimCenter Tampa Bay reviews
19Surprised my husband with a F-28 flight simulation. He was very happy! He loved it. He always wanted to do some top gun things. So this gave him a little taste. Nice find!
Wow! Incredible simulator experience. My Mom was flying an F-35 & I flew an F-18 over Las Vegas. I watched as my other half drove a Formula 1 car @ 180+mph!
This place was amazing! I am a disabled veteran and have been struggling with anxiety and have not flown in 3 years, but after treatment with the VA, we decided that I was well enough to begin flying again after setting some goals. The first step was to visit the airport and get used to being there again. The second was to visit a realistic simulator, and the 737 simulator that Peter has, gave me the confidence to fly again! It was VERY realistic with exact sounds, visuals, and mechanical details of a commercial airliner. Before my scheduled flight, Peter did two things that helped me tremendously: 1. He let me ride as a passenger on another scheduled flight which brought my anxiety to the surface and I was able to overcome it with learned techniques. 2. When it was my turn to fly, prior to my flight, he sat with me up front at a table and took the time to ask me what caused my fear of flying, we talked about it in detail, and he gave me a lot of reasons why I can overcome this fear and get back to flying. I left that place with my confidence level on 1000 and will be flying next month! Thank you Peter for this wonderful experience! I hope other vets facing aviation anxiety due to military deployments take advantage of this untapped therapy I got from Peter’s Sim Center. I will be back soon strictly for fun!
Awesome place got to fly the boing 737 - 800. Simulator: Wow, what I awesome experience. I will definitely love to do it again and will definitely be back to try the other VR games.
I flew the Boeing 737 SIM today. What an awesome experience. I have flown many single engine airplanes, VFR. This was a humbling hour to say the least. The cockpit is realistic and real time weather is loaded in for your flight. You go from start up, to taxi, to your 1 hour flight, to landing. Peter is amazing, and walks you through every step of the way. If you are into aviation at all, this is a must do experience. The F16 simulator is next for me.
Excellent Sims of many types of airplanes, including a full Boeing 737 simulator. VR plan Sims are very realistic. Reservations are recommend so you don't wait for a free Sim, but the experience is worth every penny.
Thought this would be a unique present for my husbands birthday and was not disappointed! He flew a 737 and went into space. Think this was the best present ever!
Peter is great - so knowledgeable and friendly- would highly recommend
This place is amazing and Peter, the creator is too! Randy did a formula race car and Tom did the 737 and space mission for their birthdays. Great time watching too!
I never would have imagined the experience I enjoyed today. It was so realistic and Peter was helpful in all aspects of the experience. I cannot wait to go back and try another flight.
It is a great experience to fly a B737. The SIM is absolutely professional and the instructor Peter is a professional too. We had a lot of fun. I learned a lot about flying an airliner. Absolutely recommendable. Cannot wait to do it again!
Amazing place. Peter very friendly and professional in this area. Will recommend for everyone. Also try this experience it’s best
Fun experience! Peter was very knowledgeable about the equipment and broke it down to be understandable and enjoyable. I will definitely be returning soon
It wasn’t very fun for me, If you are not advanced I don’t recommend because I flew the 737 as a starter and it was very complicated. For 120$ only 1 hour
I flew the Boeing 737 simulator from TPA to FLL. The simulator is a marvel that you must experience to fully appreciate! Extremely realistic, and even though I have no flight experience, the owner (co-pilot and instructor) guided me through every step of the flight while answering any questions you could want to know about flying a jet liner. Fantastic experience that I highly recommend!
Amazing experience flying the 737 from Miami to Tampa. My son flew the F16 with VR and was extremely happy. The owner was great, overall a great family experience
Pete the owner is wonderful and made our experience even better! So many different options of VR - 737, fighter jet, space, formula 1…. Something for everyone! My 7 year old loved it and so did I! Will definitely be back!
Had a blast flying the 737. Incredibly realistic cockpit setting and great sim overall. Did a short flight from Philly to Dulles and Peter was excellent at instruction while letting me do the flying!
In addition to all of the great tech and sim experiences, Peter is just plain fun to talk to and hang out with. A great place to add some fun to your vacation and just a very short drive from Clearwater!
I’m not sure there is a more realistic experience other than actually flying a plane. In addition to the realism of sim itself - hardware, sound, look and feel - Peter will give you feedback and information of a top level flight instructor. He’s fabulous and really passionate about providing you the realism of what it takes to fly a Boeing. This experience flew past our expectations.
This place is incredible. I was able to fly from New York to DC. While my friend was doing the F1 racing simulator the owner allowed me to fly the F18 for free at no cost! The owner is super cool and very knowledgeable. You absolutely have to take a flight from your favorite airport. The landings are the best part!
