Turn your flying dreams into reality with this 60 Minute Flying Lesson across the Essex Coastline in a four-seater Cessna 172. As soon as you arrive at Clacton Airfield, you'll get a sense for the family run vibe of this site as well as the expertise, as lessons have been taking place here since 1988. With a host of experienced pilots at your disposal, it's safe to say you'll be in the best of hands once you take to the skies. Another asset about this Flying Club is the lack of crowded airspace, due to its quiet location the skies are pretty clear from commercial traffic, meaning it's an ideal spot for newbie flyers. Once you've gone through your safety briefing and introductions you won't be far away from climbing into the cockpit. After a quick overview of the aircraft and controls, you'll soon be soaring through the skies in no time. If you're feeling like you need a dose of moral support, because you're in the 4-seater, you do have the option to invite a friend or family member along with you as a passenger. With picturesque coastal views and the perfect location for new flyers, you won't want to miss out on taking a flying lesson from Clacton.
