Microlight over Cambridgeshire Countryside and enjoy the spectacular views provided at 2,000ft by the Microlight aircraft that is capable of over 70mph

Flying Experience Days: Microlighting is the most authentic way to get up and out enjoying the skies and the glorious views of below, as the age-old sport pits you in the seat of an open cockpit flex wing, or a 2 seater fixed wing plane and exposes you to a pure, unbridled sea of views.

Your 30 minute Microlighting trial flight in Cambridgeshire will start with a warm welcome at the Airfield, where you'll meet the instructor ready for a flying experience to remember - piloting a lightweight aircraft over The Cambridgeshire Countryside. Once briefed in the safety aspects and essential protocols of Microlighting, you and your instructor will be en route to a height circa 2,000ft - where you'll reach speeds of around 70mph! Soaring through the skies with the instructor at the helm; if all goes to plan and the weather permits - you may get the chance to pilot the simple flying machine yourself! Once the flying has been grounded and you're back on terra feirma - you'll conduct a quick post flight aircraft check before returning home after an awesome day to remember.

Taking off from Little Gransden Airfield, your 30 minute Microlight flight will have you soaring through the skies at 2,000ft at speeds of up to 70mph - with nothing but gloriously picturesque countryside below. An authentic and altogether magnificent way to get out appreciating the beauty of the countryside, and the brilliance of Leonardo da Vinci's age-old flying machine!
