Prior to your flight, you will meet your expert instructor at a flying school in Essex. After a safety briefing and run down of what to expect, you will join your qualified pilot in the cockpit of the microlight aircraft.

With no previous experience needed and expert supervision throughout, this beginner level lesson is perfect taster for those who are interested in flying.
