What type of Microlight can I fly ?
only with a fixed wing type of microlight (3 axis).
Are there any age, weight or medical restrictions ?
Almost anyone can fly – the only restrictions is weigh less than 16 stone/220 lbs for everyone (100kg). And about seven years old for children.
How long can I fly ?
We offer 10, 15, 30 and 60 minutes flights. If you’d like to fly for longer, that’s no problem – just give us a call and you can book a longer flight.
What do I need to bring with me ?
A camera, sunglasses and comfortable flat shoes (not flip flops) are a good idea, and skirts/dresses are not advisable for example. And please remember your voucher if any !
Can I choose where I fly ?
You might live locally and want to fly over your house, or you might want to fly over a particular area. Where possible, we will endeavour to fulfil any particular requests. Please give us a call before booking to discuss your requirements.
Can I bring spectators ?
Yes, of course! And make sure they bring their camera!
Is my flight weather dependent ?
Yes. All microlight flying is weather dependent and if the weather is too poor on the day of your flight it will be cancelled.
We always try to give you as much notice as possible and simply re-book your Air Experience Flight to another date of your choice.
What happens during a typical
trial flight
This is what you can expect
on the day of your flight
Meet & Greet
You’ll be welcomed to Airfield by your Instructor
Briefing
Your Instructor will go through a safety briefing with you and familiarise you with the aircraft.
Take to the skies
Take in the view as you fly serenely above the Normandy countryside. The scenery is stunning and depending on which compass heading your flight takes you on, you could see the magic of Perche countryside and old manors, in Normandy
Take control
Once airborne at a safe height, you will have the opportunity to take control of the aircraft and fly yourself. Take advantage of the 1 hour flight – you get a lot more time at the controls, time to really get a feel of what it’s like to fly your own aircraft besides being simply a lot more fun!
