A truly incredible experience, the instructor was supportive and patient with my lack of knowledge. I still managed to have a great time and would love to fly here again

8.30 on a sunny June Sunday morning I taxied a plane, took off and flew a small plane over the New Forest down to the Isle of Wight. I had wanted to try flying for 7 years and it was eventually happening. Ian my instructor was just amazing, everything was relaxed and I just loved the experience. Could happily have gone again the following day. It was fabulous and I would recommend it to anyone who has thought they would like to give it a try. Thank you to my lovely partner Robert for surprising me with this experience on my 67th birthday.

Amazing Had a brilliant time, what an experience. Really impressed with the communication and support from IntoTheBlue, who made voucher management easy. Contact and liaison with Ian at was straight forward. Had a brilliant time on the actual experience. Ian was great he provided enough initial instruction to understand key principles and get started and then we were up in the air Spent plenty of time in the air and flew down to the Isle of Wight, along the Solent to the Needles, along the coast and then back across the Isle of Wight, and the New Forest back up to Old Sarum Airfield. Ian encouraged me to take the lead and control the plane as much as possible. The weather was fantastic, so it was an amazing experience, with views for milesThank you all, cant recommend it enough.

A flying experience was purchased for our daughter as she has wanted to fly since she was tiny. The flying experience exceeded her all of her expectations and ours Ian her instructor made the whole experience for her the most memorable time as well as the most supported.
