Want amazing aerial views on your flying lesson? Then Snowdonia is the place to go! This friendly flying school is based at Llanbedr Airfield perched on the edge of the stunning Welsh coastline near Harlech. It's a great place to learn to fly. We are offering 45 & 60-minute trial lessons out of Llanbedr. Flights are operated in a rather lovely Robin DR400/180 aircraft. These are four-seater sport planes characterised by their distinctive low-wing shape standing out from the usual high-wing Cessna aircraft often used for flight training. It also makes them very stable in the air & easy to fly too. Pure joy over those Snowdonian peaks! What's more being four seater aircraft you can invite up to two guests to join you onboard your lesson subject to pilot approval. That means your flight can be a real family affair which makes the whole experience all the more special when you get to share those views. & what you get to see from the air as you fly in your Robin over Snowdonia on your lesson is truly spectacular. This is a very picturesque corner of Wales & it really is best seen from the air. Snowdonia Wales's highest mountain might have a dusting of snow even in the warmer months which looks incredible from the air. You're also right next to the coast at Llanbedr Airfield & as soon as you take off you'll be treated to clifftop vistas towards the Llyn Peninsula with the white-topped waves lapping on golden sandy beaches. We think being surrounded by both beaches & mountains is pretty unique & a truly breathtaking backdrop for your lesson. Taking you out on this aerial adventure will be chief instructors Stephen Richard or one of their dedicated team of pilots. During your flight you will have the chance to 'take the controls' to fly the plane. Last but by no means least there's the Jindivik Cafe to visit once you l&. Based in the control tower of this former RAF airfield the cafe offers a top spotting point from the upstairs terrace a nice brew & tasty cooked breakfasts the staple of any flying school! We reckon these flying lessons in the wonderful Snowdonia region of Wales are a superb choice for budding flyers. A great plane space for your nearest & dearest brilliant views & top tuition too. ...

Take your flying lessons at Swansea Airport & you will be getting airborne over some of the prettiest coastal countryside we've ever seen! Based out of the airport at Fairwood Common on the Gower Peninsula this small & very welcoming club is a great place to fly from. This fully licenced flying school offers a variety of lessons from Swansea. The club has a modern fleet of light planes including five two seater Piper PA 38 Tomahawks & a four seater Piper PA28 Cherokee & you have the choice of a 30 or 60 minute flight in either sort of aeroplane. Worth noting if you have a four seat voucher you can have up to two people to join you as passengers so you can invite those who bought the voucher to join you
- & they will absolutely love it. So where will you be flying on your lesson? Well from Swansea there is a myriad of flight paths possible. What we love about this club is that they'll take the time to discuss where you go before you're even in the plane & when asked most people immediately reply 'over my house' & then ' Caldey Island where I used to go as a child'. Routes also including Tenby Swansea Bay Mumbles & Llanelli can all be planned too depending on weather & your flight duration. Once you know where you're headed on your aerial sojourn from Swansea it's time for the flying lesson to get underway as you book out & then follow your pilot instructor to the aircraft sitting on the apron. If you've never been in a small plane before you might surprised to find you climb into the cockpit by stepping up on a special padded section of the wing next to the fuselage & the inside. When settled & strapped in to your seat your pilot will point out some of the most essential dials & gauges in front of you namely the vertical speed indicator the direction indicator & the turn & slip indicator. What always amazes us with flying is that although it is complicated & full of aeronautical theory when you are at cruising altitude it all feels very comfortable relaxed & even easy. Whether you sit back & relax & just enjoy the views or you actually fancy having a go at taking the controls you are sure to enjoy your first lesson in flying over Swansea. So if you want a fun experience with fantastic views that are truly second to none these flying lessons in Swansea are a great choice. You will enjoy an aerial voyage that leaves you informed & not bamboozled by the theories of flight with the chance to see some of the very best parts of the Welsh coastline from the air
- & maybe even your own home too!

Product Description

Chocks away for in-flight fun from Fenland Airfield! This flying school is owner operator of this airfield boasting four grass runways in the heart of the Lincolnshire fens just a few miles from Spalding & Holbeach.

What we love about this Fenlands flying school is that it provides a friendly & relaxed place that welcomes pilots would-be pilots & plane spotters alike. There’s always lots going on with modern & vintage aircraft taking to the air. What’s more we’re in unrestricted air space here so you really do have the freedom of the skies round these parts.

This discrete little aerodrome at Holbeach St Johns hosts a fine fleet of club planes including the two seater Cessna 152 & the four seater 172 version. For the 30 & 45 minute trial lessons both will be at your disposal & which plane you take off in depends on weight & whether you invite (for an additional fee payable locally) any observers to join you in the cockpit to see from close quarters what this flying lark is all about.

If you sign up for the land away experience it’s a voucher for two people so one of you gets to sit up front for the outward leg flying from Fenland then after landing at a nearby airfield you then swap seats for the return sector back to base. That means you double up on the take off & landing manoeuvres & flight time making it excellent value for your money for any plane-mad duo.

As you might guess being in the fens it's pretty flat so once you’re airborne you can see for miles. & miles…and miles. In-land there’s Lincoln itself whilst a easterly bearing from Fenland soon brings you to the Wash nature reserve with the Norfolk coastline on the horizon too.

Indeed it’s all very lovely as you look out the window but you are here to learn how to fly one of these marvellous machines so once take off is out of the way the pilot will be handing the controls over to you & you’ll be practising the fine art of gently turning climbing & descending the Cessna.

With your expert pilot handling the landing you’ll soon be taxiing back past the neat little ATC tower & back to base. After a debrief it might well be time to sample the legendary Fenlands fry up in the on-site clubhouse cafe to celebrate the first time you flew yourself over Fenland Airfield in a light aircraft!
