This briefing, conducted by the pilot and co-pilot, will cover all emergency procedures as well as seat belts, what you can and cannot do once aboard and what to expect before, during and after your flight. Panchito can take a maximum of 5 passengers, but will launch with a minimum of 3, if that is all that Thank you again for your interest in our Flight Experience Program and we look forward to having you as crew on an upcoming mission!
