45 Minute Microlight Flying Experience - Cambridge




About the experience
Product ID: 13056
Get to know the picturesque countryside surrounding Ely and Cambridgeshire with a 45 Minute Microlight Flight from Sutton Meadows Airfield. Regarded by most as one of the best centres for Microlighting, if you're keen to start your flying journey and feel confident in the skies, you won't want to miss out on an experience from here. This flex-wing Microlight, which will probably be a P&M GT450 is the ideal plane to learn in as it's easy to fly with simple controls but the pilot will run through everything for you before you move an inch from the ground. And then here comes the fun part - you'll be getting dressed up in a helmet, flying suit and goggles, all provided on the day! This is an open cockpit experience, so you'll be immersed in the natural elements through the duration of your flight as you get to grips with the controls and soar across the Fens and the endless rolling hills of Cambridgeshire. It can be a welcome refreshment on a hot sunny day, but rest assured you'll feel protected against the elements with all the equipment provided. With endless possibilities at this airfield for extending your Microlight journey, or eventually gaining your pilot licence don't miss out on an experience here!

I was giving this microlight flight as a gift, Wow what a experience, it was great. Had a quick tour of the microlight with instruction as to what things were and how to mount and dismount safely. we were up and in the air in no time travelling at 80mph seemed like we were stood still as very hard to gauge speed with nothing passing you, height wise most of time at 1100ft then up to 2000ft when near airport. headset communication at all times was clear and informative as to where we was and what we was doing. Can highly recommend.
