About the experience
Product ID: 14250
Count yourself lucky if you end up taking one of these flying lessons over coastal Clacton. Nestled in the heart of Essex, this airfield has been teaching people how to fly since 1988 and has an experienced set of pilots on hand to get you feeling comfortable in the skies. The club is also unique in that it owns this airfield, so flyers are not restricted by commercial traffic causing delays and extra landing fees. There’s none of that here, in this cosy airfield treating learners to incredible views over the Essex coastline. The club has trained many people over the years and helped them get their PPL (Private Pilot’s Licence) and you could soon be among one of the success stories as you take a lesson here and end up falling in love with the flying. For this lesson, you’ll probably be flying a high wing Cessna 152 which is a classic learner aircraft due to its stability and lightness. So, why not become another success story here at Clacton Airfield as you are taught by some of the best pilots around, whether you have clocked up the hours in the skies or a complete beginner, there’s a place for you here with these friendly and informative lessons.

I flew from Clacton for the second time using into the blue but this time was for the full hour which counts towards your licence experience. I had a fabulous time with the same instructor who let me fly over Ipswich and towards Maldon circling back to Clacton. The knowledge and instruction given were first class and I will be going for my full PPL, 1 hour at a time...... 100 recommended from Clacton.

Excellent experience, over too quickly, something I have always wanted to do. The pilot was friendly and we had a good laugh and she took time to explain what she was doing whilst preparing to take off and land. And gave me time to take some photos from the air. The staff at Clacton where also very helpful looking after my wife whilst I was in the air.
