Experience thrilling flying lessons at Teesside Airport, also known as Durham Tees Valley Airport, situated between Darlington and Middlesbrough. We offer 30-minute trial flights in a four-seater light aircraft, with each lesson personalized for you. Our fleet includes Aquila, Cessna, and Piper planes, all from a fully operational commercial airport. As you fly in controlled airspace, you'll share the skies with turboprops and airliners, making your experience even more exciting. Your instructor will handle takeoff, and once you're flying straight and level, it’s your turn to take control (it’s dual-controlled for your safety!). In this four-seater option, you can invite a guest to observe your flight, subject to pilot approval and weight restrictions. The stunning views over the Tees Valley coast and North Yorkshire Moors will make your flying lesson truly special!
