Microlight Flights

For the more rudimentary microlight flying experience, where all you have is a small cockpit, a few wheels underneath and a super large wingspan to keep you up in the air, microlight flights are the flying experience that dreams are made of.

Microlight Flying Experience near You

With a large selection of locations to take off from, you could travel from anywhere up and down the country. Under the expert tuition of a qualified pilot, you'll see the British countryside from a perspective unachievable by any other aircraft.

There are a wide variety of microlight aircraft to choose from. Some are more like a small, light aircraft than the more traditional microlights, which offer 360-degree views – opened up to the elements!

Microlight Flight Gift Experiences

Some flights allow you to take the controls for your first mini flying lesson to just sitting back and letting the pilot guide you through the stunning scenery surrounding you. This could be the perfect gift idea for him, her or for a couple and would make a superb birthday present for anyone who has a keen interest in flying.

River Ramble for All

A peaceful wander along a quiet and beautiful path by the Thames, with the lively and interesting company of Steve. Relaxed and knowledgeable,Steve has many stories of life on the river, the birds,water animals and the local history. He has the sharpest ears to catch the songs of Goldcrests , Black Caps and Kingfishers to help us spot the tiny , elusive birds. Really a lovely gift for anyone who wants to be helped to appreciate our wildlife. Come in April or May!

3rd time lucky

After 2 attempts in the summer, cancelled due to poor weather conditions, it was 3rd time lucky. The staff were very friendly and helpful on all occasions, and apologetic when cancelled. The flight was smooth and interesting, going over the sea, over a castle and grounds etc. About 15 minutes into the flight, you take over the controls, under the guidance of the pilot.

Fantastic experience

We took my 3 children, 16, 19 & 21, to the Bedford Micro light Centre yesterday to redeem their vouchers (it was a Christmas present) and we had a great time. From the moment we arrived we were made to feel welcome by all the staff who friendly, knowledgeable and professional. Our instructor conducted a thorough safety briefing and put us all at ease - we were all a bit nervous initially, having never done this before. Before taking off he turned the micro light around and taxied slowly past the viewing area each time so that we were able to take photos/videos before each of them went up - nice touch. It was quite a chilly day, so the wood burner in the reception area helped keep us all warm. The children had a wonderful day and we would strongly recommend the Bedford venue - thank you.
