This was a really good experience. The flight lasted for a full hour, and Dave, my pilot, had an encyclopedic knowledge of the surrounding area. He was able to point out all of the landmarks, towns and villages of interest, and tell me something about them. Highlights for me were Avebury Stone Circle, Marlborough town, and white horses at Hackpen, Alton Barnes and Uffington. You can see my video of it on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=djN4A4FTL1M Highly recommended!

On the afternoon of Monday 14th August 2017 I took to the skies over Swindon in a flexi-wing microlight with my pilot Dave. What a wonderful way to get a different view of the Swindon and the surrounding area. Dave pointed out all the places and landmarks of interest and took me over the area where I live. The chance to actually control the microlight, briefly was the icing on the cake. This is something I would like to do again.

My microlight flight on Sunday 21st May 2017 was a wonderful experience. I thoroughly enjoyed every single minute and was very fortunate to have a wonderful pilot - Dave - who told me everything that was happening and pointed out all the various points of interest. It was a little bit blustery but that did not spoil the thrill and joy of the flight in the slightest - I hope to be able to take another flight in the not too distant future. Thanks and kind regards to you all, Pat Foster
