A trial lesson is the perfect gift for family, friends or a colleague; it can also be the ideal corporate incentive or thank-you. The experience of flying is a unique, thrilling experience for any occasion, be it a birthday, anniversary or just to say thank-you. Trial lesson vouchers are easy to purchase and can be tailored to suit your needs with different aircraft and durations available.
Trial lessons can also be the perfect starting point for that person wishing to undertake the challenging and rewarding experience of learning to fly, either with the prospect of being a licensed private pilot or as a stepping stone to a career in aviation.

Frequently asked questions
There are no specific medical restrictions unless planning to become a qualified pilot. Passengers must be able to get in and out of the aircraft unaided and it is inadvisable for expectant mothers to fly.
We operate a two passenger policy in order to stay within the weight restrictions of our aircraft. Weight limitations vary depending on the specific aircraft used and the fuel onboard but as a general guide we can take two average sized adult passengers. It is possible to take three passengers but this would normally be limited to one adult and two children.Â
There are no age restrictions but we would advise that younger children are supervised by an adult and we may ask the responsible parent or guardian to sign a consent form.
Whilst we provide standard flight durations for ease of booking we can vary the length of the flight to suit your requirements upon request.
Trial flights are flown with qualified instructors and therefore these flights can be used towards the requirements of the Private Pilot License (PPL).
We offer flights in 4 seat PA-28 type aircraft allowing customers to bring along a friend at no extra cost. As is suggested by the name, all recipients are encouraged by our instructors to take the controls as much as possible.

"I was paired up with another person and had to decide who was flying first we couldn’t pick so we chose to toss a coin and I won. I was allowed to steer on taxi then once we took off I was given the control, lovely views then landed on short runway and changed over pilots, overall excellent experience."
