Flying Experience Days: Experience the thrill of Microlight Flying at Membury Airfield, where you can take to the skies of Swindon at 2,000ft - on an unforgettable flight over the picturesque countryside, starting from any of the 750m, 407m and 274m runway straights at the great Airfield. 

Your Microlight Flying Experience in Berkshire will begin with a welcome to Redlands Airfield, where your instructor for the day will introduce you to the grounds, the Microlight and the essential protocols of Microlighting in these areas. After a final pre-flight check, you'll make your way to the runway and take to the skies ready for a 20-30 minute flight, admiring the fantastic scenic countryside below. If the conditions allow it, your instructor may even let you take the controls and get some hands on experience! Once safely landed, the pilot will debrief and provide advice on the next stages - then you can take home your commemorative certificate to remember the day with.

A gift voucher for a Microlight Flight in Berkshire is a wonderfully unique idea for Mother's and Father's Day, or celebrating a special occasion with a once-in-a-lifetime experience!

This is a nice first flight for anyone who has not been in a light aircraft. The instructors are knowledgeable and friendly and you have the opportunity to fly they aircraft. Weather on my day was overcast which limited our options for flight but was still a good experience and would recommend for anyone interested in light aircraft flying.

My microlight flight was a gift from my family for a VERY big birthday and can think of nothing I would rather have had. My pilot was such a nice man and the whole experience was most enjoyable. Can now cross that off my bucket list!

This was a 60th birthday present for my brother! He thoroughly enjoyed the experience and was reassured by the pilot before and during the flight! He hasn't stopped talking about it! Great experience and well worth the money! A*

This flight was a first class experience, made all the more enjoyable by the friendliness of the instructor who very quickly made you feel very much at ease. I would have no hesitation in recommending this activity to anyone else.
