As experiences go, Flying Lessons at Biggin Hill are pretty special. It's hard not to feel inspired by the aviation history that surrounds this place as it was used during the Battle of Britain by the RAF as a key base during WW2. History is everywhere you look when you visit, and it will be at the back of your mind as you take off through the skies on your lesson. As soon as you arrive, you'll probably notice how long the runway is as you get introduced to the 4-seater plane you're going to be learning in. Your experienced instructor will take care of the takeoff, but after that, it's all over to you! Nothing prepares you for your first flight through the skies where you are in control, but as you soar over Kent and London it's safe to say the views will be pretty special. In this lesson, you'll be focusing on mastering the 'straight and level' which is a key component of the pilot syllabus and will be an invaluable skill to have if you choose to take it further and train for a licence. For the chance to have a lesson at a historic airport where all the aviation action is still happening, look no further and secure your place on this 60 Minute Lesson today!

Shame the lessons are so weather dependant and therefore makes ones life diary difficult to manage, having said that, an experience not to be missed,turbulence buffering hightens how fragile a small plane can be in the ether. Adrenaline hit?!!!!!!!!!!!
Tim Humphreys
Well all I can say is wow what a great day for taking to the skies around Sevenoaks from Biggin Hill airport took the controls and flew the plane.
Had a laugh with the pilot as we walked around the plane doing preflight checks engine dam thought someone nicked it small compact engine thought someone replaced it with one from flymo blink and you'll miss it !!
All I can say is great day, great pilot and great time thank you.
Michael Pearson
Superb experience - flying from Biggin Hill! Apart from takeoff and landing I did most of the flying and really started to get the hang of it.
Well recommended but bear in mind that it is weather dependent.
Ed Stobart
A fabulous experience. The instructor was brilliant with my 16 year old son, picked up on his love of flying, and I suspect has been the modest start of something very big!
Vishal

My I hour introductory flying lesson was very enjoyable and informative. I flew the plane for about 40 mins, although the instructor handled take off and landing (for obvious reasons). Well worth it.
Pablo
Excellent day a real experience. Our pilot was brilliant.
Helen Else
I was given a 1 hour lesson as a gift. Really nervous and didn't know how much I would want/be able to take control but my instructor, John, was great and really put me at ease so I actually took control as soon as I could and didnt want to give it back! Great experience.
Ian Rush
Very good service provider and excellent experience.

I had a flying lession in Piper Warrior PA28 as my birthday present. Really enjoyed the whole experience. The EFG flying school staff was very friendly and welcoming. My instructor Paul was very experienced, clear and reassuring. I was able to do quite a lot during an hour and got a real feel of how to fly a plane. Really recommend this experience to anybody.
