Customer Reviews for the 60 Minute Light Sports Flying Lesson - Athey Moor Airfield
I was given the two hour flight experience as a gift. It was amazing experience. Northumberland is a beautiful part of the country but the view from the sky is even better. My instructor Terry was friendly and put me at ease straight away. I would definitely recommend a flying lesson with this school.
