Agenda
On arrival at the airfield you will be introduced to your instructor. They will brief you about microlights and what will happen during the flight, as well as answering any questions you may have about flying, the centre or the aircraft. You can then choose whether you want to fly a fixed wing or flex wing aircraft. The instructor will taxi you to the grass runway, go through final safety checks and take off. Once airborne at about 2000 feet control of the microlight will be passed to you. Learn some basic flight manoevures such as turning, climbing and descending. When you return back to land you will be given a certificate as a memento of the flight.
Notes
On purchasing this experience you will be issued a voucher valid for 10 months for one person. You are then free to call and book your flight with the flying school. No previous flight experience is necessary. Flight time will be approximately 20mins, you have the choice of which microlight aircraft you wish to fly, you will reach 2000feet and travel at 50-60mph. It is advised that you bring a jacket or jumper as it can get cold whilst airborne, even in the summer! The school is open all year round, 7 days a week. The minimum age for this experience is 14 years old. Family and friends are welcome to come along and watch from ground and take pictures. The experience is subject to availability and weather conditions - it is recommended that you ring the school on the day of the flight to check it's safe to fly.

My girlfriend insisted I email in and tell you how much I loved my microlight flight gift experience that she got me, because she's sick of me going on about it! It was honestly the most amazing thing ever! The instructor let me fly the thing for nearly the whole entire time! Microlights are amazing aircrafts, it's kinda like paragliding (which I loved by the way), hanggliding and just, well, gliding! I now want to try a flying lesson in a real plane - just have to convince my girlfriend to buy it me for Christmas!
