What Can I Expect

Our best-value microlighting lessons available nationwide! We are offering vouchers for 30 and 60-minute microlight experiences departing from airfields across the country. Your voucher is valid for all locations currently listed, making these microlight lessons our most flexible too.

All microlight experiences start with a pre-flight briefing, where you will be shown around the aircraft. The main characteristic is that a microlight is really light (to be classed as one, the aircraft has to weigh less than 450kg).

Microlights are quite varied these days, with many clubs around the UK now flying modern fixed wing microlights that offer the comfort of a regular training aircraft, whilst others still offer flights in the flexible wing, 'open cockpit' style microlights, giving you that 'at one with the elements' feel.

Once securely strapped in, your pilot instructor will handle the take off and climb. Having settled down into level flight, you will then be given the opportunity to try the controls. You might not believe us now, but you'll find it's really quite easy (yet still totally thrilling!) to actually fly the microlight yourself.

All aircraft are CAA registered, plus the microlight clubs and training schools we feature are part of the British Microlight Aircraft Association.

These nationwide vouchers are valid at over 30 different microlight schools around the country. With so many locations, you are never far away from an airfield offering flights in these ultra light aircraft. In just a few clicks, you'll have your microlight experience all sorted.
