Overview
Come to Derbyshire for an unforgettable 30-minute microlight flight in either a fixed-wing or flex-wing light sport aircraft! These exciting flights take off from the charming Darley Moor Airfield near Ashbourne. Originally an RAF airfield, Darley Moor now offers a range of aerial activities, including a thrilling race course. At the airfield, you'll find a fleet of both fixed-wing and flex-wing microlights ready for you. The flex-wing microlights have a hang-glider-shaped canopy and a small open cockpit, perfect for an exhilarating ride. If you prefer something more conventional, the fixed-wing Ikarus C42 has a closed cockpit and controls similar to those of a light aircraft, with two seats side by side. Once you're airborne, you'll enjoy stunning views of recognisable landmarks like Dove Dale, Ashbourne, and Carsington Water. It's truly an experience you don't want to miss! Buy your voucher now and book your flight today for a sky-high adventure!

Mark Eustace
Amazing experience. The people were great, really friendly and very helpful. The skies were clear and the view fantastic. Flying in a microlight flex wing is very different to being in a plane. You need to try it to understand. I recommend this experience. If you have a sense of adventure, youll love it.
Marti Trujols
Amazing experience difficult to put into words. Very friendly and helpful staff and the pilotinstructor, Steve, very professional and knowledgeable. he really lives flying made me feel very relaxed and safe throughout the flight. Really really good. Planning to do it all over again

tb parkes
Thoroughly enjoyed the flight .. Though more edgy than I expected. Will tell friends of my experience, but leave it up to them rather than recommend
Owen Sizer
For someone who lived in Derbyshire as a child went to school in Matlock, camped , walked, over many years,it was fantastic. I extended my flight and at 80 yrs old I would recomend this to any one..People at Ashbourne were great .
Nigel Hibberd
Yes would definitely recommend the microlite flight from Ashbourne to anyone. The set up is very friendly and they do an extra film 30 of your experience from a camera fixed to the wing In theory the discussion between instructor and you should be captured but that did not happen. But the views on the film reflect very much what I saw. I was allowed to fly the microlite for a while and the hour counts to your pilots licence if you wish to pursue that. They even let my grandson sit in a cockpit of a tiger moth parked on the field I would definitely go again. NH

Purchased this experience from Intotheblue. Excellent company no hassle deal was as stated and very good value for money.Did microlight experience at Darley Moor Airfield near Ashbourne. From the moment we arrived all the staff were really friendly and put you at ease. This was my first microlight flight and Mark my pilot was relaxed and explained all the safety procedures and what would happen on the flight.It was truly amazing to take off and fly over the derwent valley countryside of the derbyshire peak district including dovedale, thorpe cloud and the stepping stones. I totally recommend this experience for the most brilliant day of my life. I am 70 years old so you are never too old to try this experience.
