Microlighting perfectly captures the spirit of early aviation - pioneering, thrilling and a touch eccentric.

This is a great way to fly on a fine summer's day!

The instructors will give you a thorough briefing and then take them on a trial flying lesson. We are sure they will end up as enthusiastic as the instructors are!

They will be given a detailed briefing from there instructor, which includes how to use dual controls, how to enter the aircraft and pre-take off checks.


Typical Programme
They then take to the sky, climbing to up to 1500 feet above ground level in a flexwing (open cockpit) or fixed wing (closed cockpit - similar to a mini plane) aircraft (please state preference at time of booking).

The instructor will demonstrate the controls and then, if the instructor is happy, the controls will be passed to them. Happy flying!
