The perfect introduction to flying

Whether booking for yourself or as a gift voucher for someone special, a trial flight is the ideal way to experience taking control of a light aircraft for the first time.

Remember, last post for Christmas will be 19th December but you are welcome to collect in person or order an e-voucher until 4pm on 23rd December.

We’re excited to welcome you

Choose an aircraft

We operate trial flights from our own training aircraft. Take your pick from the Cessna 152 and Piper PA28.

Our two seat Cessna 152s are ‘high wing’ aircraft offering amazing views of the ground below. With their robust build and straightforward layout they are the ideal ‘starter’ aircraft for student pilots.

30 minutes - £99.00
42 minutes - £136.00
60 minutes - £178.00

Our four seat Piper PA28 “Archer” is a ‘low wing’ aircraft offering a more spacious cockpit and two rear seats so you can take along passengers to share in the flying experience with you.

30 minutes - £119.00
42 minutes - £162.00
60 minutes - £215.00

Capture the moment

We look forward to helping you cherish and remember your memorable flight experience by expertly recording it and sharing a beautifully edited video with you, all for a small extra fee. The final video features a variety of camera angles, captures the entire flight journey, and includes air traffic control communications and immersive in-flight audio for an enhanced viewing experience.

Add the flight video on check-out or by letting our reception team know when you book your flight.

Make it indulgent

Why not enhance your trial flight experience with a delightful afternoon tea? Alongside your booking, you can enjoy a selection of freshly prepared sandwiches, an array of exquisite cakes, and a variety of pastries. To complement your treats, choose between a refreshing cup of tea or coffee.
