The Perfect Gift
Trial Lessons from £139
Trial Flying Lessons make a wonderful gift for the first-time pilot or just someone who has dreamed of flying a light aircraft. Your flying time even counts towards a Private Pilots Licence so who knows, it could be the first steps towards achieving this.
You will receive friendly instruction on the basic principles of flight before and during the flight, then take the controls yourself and discover the exhilaration of piloting your own aircraft over the Essex countryside and coastline. Trial Lessons are carried out by a fully qualified flying instructor in a Cessna 152 aircraft.
The aim of a trial lesson is to teach you the basic principles of how an aeroplane flies and essentially let you have a go at performing some basic manoeuvres yourself.
Flights in a vintage aircraft at Duxford from £99
In addition to the above, our sister company Classic Wings offers sightseeing flights and flying experiences in a range of genuine WW2 vintage aircraft such as the Dragon Rapide, Tiger Moth and T6 Harvard. Free entry to Imperial War Museum Duxford included!
