On arrival, an instructor will brief you about how to control an aeroplane, then show you how to do a pre-flight inspection of the aircrarft, before boarding the dual-control aeroplane to start up.

    Had a fantastic time! Very professional and friendly instructor. Although it was a thrilling experience I felt completely safe at all stages. Highly recommended!

    I had a great time. Only thing you may like to give some thought to is that the water heater in the waiting room would be safer in a higher position, away from children. It would also be good if the hot tap had a warning sign on it. The flight was magnificent and I thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Grant was very friendly.

    The only thing to make the experience even better would have been a photograph or two from inside the plane.
