Introductory Microlight Flight
About this experience
Why not try something different and take to the skies for what is often described as a true feeling of freedom in the air. Microlighting is a form of flight that has developed enormously over the past 20 years and has now evolved into one of the safest and most economical forms of flight. Ultra light and easy to fly, sit back and take in the glorious views of your chosen location or maybe give the controls a go yourself. Many clubs now use fixed wing Microlights that offer the comfort of a regular training aircraft, whilst others still use aircrafts with the flexible wing, open cockpit style, adding a vintage feel to your experience. Whichever you end up in, you are sure to feel the thrill of this marvellous aircraft.
