Experience flying a Microlight over the picturesque grounds of Liverpool, flying to 2,000ft with views of The Lake District, Wales and much more on your unforgettable Microlight flight.

Flying Experience Days: Flying a Microlight over the coast of Liverpool, Lancashire and the other spectacular patchwork countryside is an experience worthy of a wait, as the quite stunning visuals of Liverpool, West Lancashire's coast and the views of The Lake District and even North Wales make for quite splendid viewing when soaring through the clouds at 2,000ft. Taking off from Ince Blundell Airfield, your unforgettable Microlighting experience will have you exposed to the most awe-inspiring of scenic views of Merseyside's award winning city of Liverpool - and many other famous British landscapes as your fly through the skies at speeds of up to 70mph!

Your Microlighting trail flight will begin at Ince Blundell Airfield, where you'll have a safety and technique brief covering the protocols and essentials of flying a Microlight. Then, once briefed and ready to start the aerial adventure, you'll take to the runway and lift off up to the height of 2,000ft with your instructor at the helm - where you are free to take in the most incredible views of the country's coastal contours and much more. With a total flight length of around 20-30 minutes, if the conditions permit and the instructor allows - you can take the controls and actually fly the historically designed flying machine yourself! Once the flying experience nears its finish and you are safely back on the ground, you'll be presented with a commemorative certificate to remember your day with and conduct a quick post-flight-check.

The experience was amazing , and the instructor was friendly and gave a fascinating summary all the way on the flight , pointing out the places of interest , and the views were out of this world. Just thought the check in experience was rather hurried at the airfield , and was airborne for around 20 minutes only , instead of the 30 I thought I was going to have. Overall .would highly recommend
