That was the most beautiful experience I had. The pilot was great I will deff repeat again.
Thanks
Thomas Wigley
I flew from Clacton for the second time using into the blue but this time was for the full hour which counts towards your licence experience. I had a fabulous time with the same instructor who let me fly over Ipswich and towards Maldon circling back to Clacton.
The knowledge and instruction given were first class and I will be going for my full PPL, 1 hour at a time...... 100% recommended from Clacton.
Dave Frost

I booked this flying experience for my son as a birthday gift and I am very pleased that I did this. We had to reschedule it first time due to bad weather but were offered another convenient date and time.
The pilot was very nice man and my son thoroughly enjoyed it. Very happy.

Brian Westgate
Excellent experience, over too quickly, something I have always wanted to do. The pilot was friendly and we had a good laugh and she took time to explain what she was doing whilst preparing to take off and land. And gave me time to take some photos from the air. The staff at Clacton where also very helpful looking after my wife whilst I was in the air.
Ian Milne
Excellent day out would recommend this to anyone. The pilot Simon who gave myself instruction was superb and gave instruction at a pace to suit. Hope to do this again in the future.

What a great flight we had! The pilot was very informative and made us feel at ease. The conditions were perfect so everything ran smoothly in the day. The office kept us updated with flight times and even called to say we could fly early! New hobby unlocked!
