What happens in a Wingman Challenge
Your group splits into flight crews. Each crew is briefed by a Certified Flight Instructor, then takes the controls of the full-motion simulator. Every flight is scored. When the last crew lands, the winners are crowned and every guest takes home a gift.
Brief
Crews are formed and the mission is set.
Fly
Each crew member flies a scored scenario.
Score
A live leaderboard tracks every crew.
Debrief
Awards, bragging rights, and lessons that carry back to work.

We handle the catering
Catered by Union Joints
Slow-smoked barbecue, scratch-made sides, and comfort food done right. Union Joints is a Detroit-area favorite, and the spread lands the way a great event should: generous, hearty, and impossible to ignore. Think brisket, pulled pork, smoked chicken, mac and cheese, and cornbread, built with you for your group.
The Wingman Challenge, Wheels Up, and Take Flight each include a catering credit. Preflight includes light bites. Want more? We arrange it and bill the difference. Outside food is not permitted.
