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.

Just do it. Still buzzing from flying such an experience.

Such a great buzz, I took the controls myself for part of the flight and flew for over 15 minutes, such an experience to be up in the sky and see the beautiful countryside in this way, it will stay with me for a long while. Such a good location for me too being 45 mins from London, the guys at the Sandy venue were so helpful, I travelled by train and they picked me up from nearby station. Couldn’t help looking up at the sky on the way home, hard to believe I was up there....

Great day, lovely people, can't recommend highly enough

I did the 5 hour just for fun session and made a viking knife (which will be doing a lot of work on our cheese board). The 2 instructors I had, Benjy and Jean, were brilliant. Really patient and helpful, and worked really well with all the group to make sure we got the best out of the day. I'm really happy with my little knife, and already convincing myself I need to do the Cu Mai course at some point soon. Thanks everyone for a brilliant day.

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.
