Flying Experience Days: Enjoy breathtaking views over Yorkshire during this 40-minute flight in a fixed-wing Cessna 172 airplane. With several different routes to choose from, as well as the option to add a second passenger free of charge, it’s a tailor-made airborne experience you’ll never forget! 

With this experience you can sit back, relax and enjoy the sights, or take a more hands-on approach! Flights depart from the main runway at Leeds Bradford Airport. After meeting the pilot and taking your seats in the latest Cessna 172 Skyhawk SP, you’ll take off and climb to around two thousand feet. From this altitude, you’ll enjoy stunning views of the Yorkshire landscape, with excellent all-round visibility thanks to the Cessna’s high wing. Whether you opt to take in the Yorkshire Dales and Bolton Abbey or the ancient city of York, they’ll be loads to photograph—so don’t forget your camera! What’s more, in most circumstances, you can even arrange to fly over your house (subject to certain conditions). Get ready to see your street, your neighbourhood and the surrounding countryside as you’ve never seen them before! 

The 40-Minute Fixed Wing Aircraft Flight in Yorkshire is a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and vouchers make thoughtful gifts for special birthdays and anniversaries. Take your loved one to cloud nine today!
