Microlighting at Goodwood Aerodrome

What Can I Expect

Go microlighting at Goodwood! Shop vouchers for a 30 or 60-minute flying lesson with tuition included, or sit back and sightsee on a 60-minute air experience. All flights are operated in a modern, closed-cockpit microlight aircraft at this historic aerodrome near Chichester.

Goodwood Aerodrome is renowned for its rich history in both aviation and automobiles. It’s also unique, in that the world-famous Goodwood Circuit forms the perimeter of the runways. It’s a fascinating place to visit and even more exciting to fly from Goodwood.

You will be getting airborne in an Ikarus C42. Classed as microlights, these lightweight sport aircraft are easy and enjoyable to fly and fly in. Budding pilots appreciate the plane’s responsiveness, stability and forgiveness, whilst flying schools love the fuel efficiency!

It’s worth noting that the seating configuration in the Ikarus is side by side, so you will be able to easily observe what your instructor pilot is doing and vice versa when it’s your turn to take the controls and actually fly the aircraft.

For those on the air experience, there’s no tuition involved, it’s all about taking in the sights. There is an awful lot to see from the air - from vintage aircraft and cars, to the West Sussex coastal views and rolling countryside too.

Buy these microlighting vouchers for Goodwood and know you’re onto a winner for anyone who loves planes, cars and breathtaking vistas!
