Buy your Gift Experience Flight now - and benefit from our unique money back guarantee!

Discover the unique experience of open cockpit flight with our 30 minute or 60 minute Gift Experience Flights. On your air experience flight you could take the controls of a flexwing microlight above the beautiful countryside over the three counties of  Northamptonshire, Leicestershire and Cambridgeshire. 

 

We are aware that something like this may be slightly daunting to some recipients so we offer the following guarantees:

 

  • Probably uniquely amongst Voucher Operators, there is no 12 month time limit. As long as we are still flying, we will honour the voucher.

 

  • On top of that, if the recipient really decides they don't want to take the trip, they are more than welcome to gift it on to someone else - just let us know so we can change the name.

 

  • And finally, if they really don't want to fly, and don't want to gift it to someone else, then we will give you your money back - no questions asked. Simply contact us within 28 days of purchase and we will refund to the original card. So no worries about wasting money on a dud gift.

 

So what does the experience involve? Well, having confirmed on the day that the weather is flyable (if not, we will simply re-book), arrive at the airfield using these directions. If your aircraft is airborne, just spend a few minutes soaking up the atmosphere, or maybe grab a cuppa from our crew room upstairs.

 

Upon landing, your pilot will make himself known to you, and show you around the aircraft. He will give you a safety brief (nothing too complicated), before fitting you up with a flying suit, helmet and headset. Its then a matter of getting strapped in and going flying!

 

 

You can view local landmarks as you've never seen them before - Rockingham Castle, Drayton House (Saltburn), Boughton House, Rutland Water and more! If the weather is suitable, and if you want to, you may get the chance of taking control yourself and flying from the back seat.

 

If you've brought friends or family, there is a viewing area where they can watch the goings on at the airfield and purchase snacks. 

 

So why not buy a gift voucher for a loved one - an unforgettable Christmas or Birthday Gift. How about a Father's Day Flight or a Mother's Day Surprise? With no time limit and our money back guarantee they make a perfect gift! And of course feel free to come along yourself to watch with family and friends!
