John Kenny
Purchased the experience for our son for his GCSE results. He has an ambition to be a pilot and at the end of the day was smiling from ear to ear.
Very well run and experience with some genuinely nice people involved in it all.
Highly recommended.
Lisa Totton
Excellent experience. I bought a hours flying lesson for my sons 16th birthday. He loved it.
Graham kemsley
I had a great time I would recommend it to anyone next time I would go up for a hour flight the instructor was brilliant It gave me a buzz
Carol Middleton
I cannot praise the team at the airfield enough for providing a superb 60 minute flying experience! Everyone was brilliant, even when I had to change my planned date to attend a funeral.
I had the biggest smile on my face before, during and after the flight.
My instructor, Ryk, was very informative. As soon as he had taken off I was quickly taught how to steer the plane up, down, left and right and how to keep it level, which I was allowed to do throughout the rest of the flight (while Ryk continued to support the rest of the process!)
In fact, I enjoyed the experience so much that I have decided to begin lessons with the intention of gaining a private pilot licence.
Ian Lyon
Excellent experience with professional tuition.
Stephen Maskrey
Thoroughly enjoyed the experience from arrival at Tatenhill Airfield. The staff were so friendly and did everything in their capacity to put me at ease. My pilot for the day Dave was waiting for me in reception and was fantastic through out the take off prep and the actual flight He was keen to show me how well aircraft responded and how easy it was to fly. He also made sure that I had a good view of particular landmarks during the flight. After landing he provided me with further information on future flights but was not pushy at all. Will definitely be doing it again soon.

I had a thoroughly enjoyable day and my pilot made me feel comfortable and at ease. His instruction meant I got to fly the Cessna 152 for 50 mins of the 60 min booking. I had never flown before and hope to book again when funds permit
