Brilliant experience felt totally safe with an experienced pilot, but with a high degree of freedom to fly myself and get a true feeling of what its like to fly.

The guy who took me up in the plane was amazing, I was surprised just how much he let me do. Once hed took off and levelled the plane out he let me take over and he didnt take control again until he took it in to land.

Booked a flying experience as a gift for daughters 18th birthday. She loved it We were made welcome and she got chance to take the controls and fly the plane herself. The family enjoyed watching as well.

Brilliant experience The instructor was very welcoming after a brief introduction to the aircraft controls using a model to explain what each did we went out to the aircraft. The instructor did the preflight checks we took off amazing At 1500 feet the instructor handed over the controls I was able to fly for the next 50 minutes only handing over control for landing. An incredible 60 minutes and should Iwant to learn to fly this would count towards my hours needed to get a pilots licence.

Booked the hour long flying experience as a present for my 20 year old son. He had a fantastic time, all went easily from time of booking until the end. Would recommend this length of time in the air, being able to take over the controls for longer and appreciate the knowledge of your instructor, without feeling rushed. Would definately book this hour long experience again. Thank you Turweston Airfield.

A brilliant experience in the hands of a true professional and support team. Ian made me feel as if I were his first and only client, when clearly this experience is very popular. Great sense of humour and no question was too simplistic. Thanks to all.

I purchased this experience for my mum who had always wanted to try. She was absolutely thrilled with it and is still talking about it now. I had to change the location of the experience and the staff were more than happy to do that for me. Thank you for making her day, year and always.
