I think almost every flying school out at Springbank offers the discovery flights. Usually a choice between a half hour or full hour. I would maybe wait a few years to take your daughter Buzzard, unless she is really tall she might not get a great view from the left hand seat. Perhaps call and ask if they have a pillow or other booster that would allow her to see over the instrument panel?

Do you only spot at the McKnight area? There are many more spots that are great depending on what runways are in use.
