Agenda

Upon arrival at the airfield you may wait inside the clubhouse until the instructor comes to collect you. You will have a short briefing with your instructor who will run through a safety briefing, run through some of the controls of the aircraft and explain a little about the microlight and its history. You will then be strapped in alongside your instructor who will taxi the aircraft to the runway and then take off. You will reach approximately 2000ft and fly over some of North Yorkshire's famous landmarks including the Dales, Moors, White Horse and if time permits, the coastline. If you feel comfortable you can take control of the aircraft under close supervision of the instructor who will ensure your complete safety. You will have a total flight time of 60 minutes.
