Flying Experiences in the South East

Experience the exhilarating thrill of private flying across the South East of England during your own introductory flying lesson. Take the controls of a light aircraft under the supervision of a flying expert and learn some basic manoeuvres during the 30-minute session. Alternatively, you could take a 60-minute lesson from a skilful and knowledgeable instructor that could get you truly bitten by the flying bug.

For the more adventurous flyer why not make the most of an acrobatic flying experience. The pilot will take you through a whole acrobatic sequence and even invite you to take hold of the controls. This experience will surely allow you to sample the thrills of flying loops in the air and have you imagining that you're part of an acrobatic flying display. Alternatively you could soar through the sky like a bird in a micro light and enjoy the views at closer proximity.

More sedate adventures can be had rising gently in a hot air balloon while sipping champagne and watching the beautiful scenery of South Eastern England go by. Why not treat your other half to the breath taking views and sunrise over one of the home countries?

Great gift

I recently purchased this as a gift for a plane trip, and it turned out to be a great choice. I really liked that you could add a pre-selected extra for an additional charge it was optional, of course, but it definitely enhanced the overall experience and made the gift feel more special, almost reminiscent of something out of Fifty Shades of Grey. Overall, I had a very positive experience and would absolutely consider purchasing again. I’m looking forward to using it.

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 Visit

It was awesome to see the 3rd out of the 18 remaining Concorde’s, to go on board and the information from the guide and films was so interesting. An unforgettable experience. Another highlight was being able to board and look round the Sultan of Oman’s former private jet.
