Testimonials

Don't take our word for it. Here's what our trainees are saying about us:

Chris Haycock

For years I dreamt of learning how to fly. Learning how to fly a microlight is one of the most thrilling and satisfying things I've ever done. My instructor Mick has taken me from a nervous beginner to a confident but safe trainee pilot with more than 170 hours under my belt. Today, the sky is the limit, and I regularly go flying to exciting, historic airfields such as Duxford, Welshpool and Sandown (Isle of Wight). It's the best thing I've ever done.
