Vital Information

The minimum age is 12 years old. You should weigh over 109Kg (240lbs). If you are subject to sudden disabling health attacks such as epilepsy but satisfy the medical requirements for a normal UK driving licence, you may enjoy this experience; please contact us otherwise.

The Weather

We suggest that you contact the location prior to leaving to confirm that your experience will go ahead because rain, high winds and poor visibility can restrict flying.

Your experience will last the full day and you will receive between 2 and 3 flights.

Numbers

Your briefing may be shared; your flight will be held on a one-to-one basis with the instructor.
