Flying Lessons facts

Baroness Raymonde De Laroche was the very first woman to receive a pilot's license, and in 1919 she set an astounding women's altitude record of 15,700 feet. Now that's what we call a high-flyer!
In 1909 Glenn Martin singlehandedly taught himself how to fly using his very own aeroplane, becoming the third person in the US to do so.
Wiley Post was the first person to fly solo around the world in an aeroplane, taking off on June 23, 1931 and touching back down eight days, 15 hours and 51 minutes later after circling the globe. We'd have been impressed with him managing to cross a few State lines!

Customer Reviews of Flying Lessons

I absolutely love flying and this was a great gift from my parents. I would love to do this again tomorrow if I could! I recommend this gift to anyone, even those who are afraid of flying. The feeling you get being in control of the plane is incredible.
Chris Trillo

Hi, just a really quick note to let you know that we have just returned from the extended flying lesson that I bought from you for my husband’s 50th birthday. I would like to say what a brilliant time we both had, and how friendly and helpful the staff were...

Lesley Rhodes

Buyagift is always my first stop for gift ideas as in my experience your gift experience days are second to none. This flying lesson was no exception, as my daughter came back beaming all over her face after her time in the cockpit. Another great value purchase, thank you.
