Put your technical skills to the test as you enjoy this 40 minute flying lesson in a Cessna 152. Whether you’ve clocked up the hours in the skies before, or are a complete beginner, these flying lessons can be tailored to suit all experience levels as you are accompanied by an expert pilot. Not only will you learn the technical skills for flying the plane, but prior to this you will be given the lowdown on the pre flight checks and radio clearance from the pilot, as you develop insider knowledge into how these aircrafts work. Once ready, your pilot will take care off take off and you’ll soon be soaring over the skies of Gloucestershire and the rolling hills all around. Because these pilots are passionate about getting people flying and feeling confident in the skies, they will encourage you to take the controls for as much as possible to make the most of your flying lesson.

John Pugh
I very much enjoyed the experience and strongly recommend it. My instructor was Dave at Staverton. He explained the aircraft controls and instruments in a clear way prior to departure and then gave me control of the aircraft from almost immediately after take off through to start of approach. Great experience go try it.
Christopher Lockey
The flying experience itself was amazing Alex the instructor at Staverton Airport was great, his whole demeanor put me at ease and I thoroughly enjoyed the experience. He also took the controls a couple of times to allow me to take pictures and video.Into The Blue are a great company with excellent communications. Due to the pandemic they pushed back the end date on my experience three times so that I wouldnt miss out. I cant praise them enough.

Thoroughly enjoyed this experience. Dave Houghton was a brilliant instructor. He was knowledgeable, articulate and calm throughout. He kindly allowed my wife to join me and ensured the flight included a route and sights which we would be familiar with and enjoy. We now have wonderful memories of the day and felt Dave went above and beyond to ensure customer satisfaction.
