Looking to fly a fixed-wing microlight near Hull? This 30 Minute Microlight Flight at Beverley Airfield, the home of the Hull Aero Club, based near the village of Leven in East Riding of Yorkshire, should tick all the boxes. The microlight in question that you'll be flying in is the Ikarus C42, a two-seater, closed cockpit aircraft, that's dual control, fun and responsive to fly. It is therefore perfect to learn flying from under the guidance of your expert instructor who will be beside you throughout the flight, and the tuition is completely tailored to your requirements. But if you would rather just enjoy the flight and see the stunning East Ridings scenery, including the River Hull and the Humber Estuary from a bird's eye view, that's OK. Either way, it's the perfect experience to get a taste for flying in a microlight!
