The Experience
Enjoy a scenic flight over Northumberland with stunning views and commentary from your experienced instructor.
Flying in a flex-wing microlight offers an unparalleled experience, closer to the sensation of being a bird. With unobstructed views and the thrill of open-air flying, it's a one-of-a-kind adventure. The Northumberland coastline is an officially designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, making this flight truly unforgettable.
Our most popular route takes off from Atheys Moor, soaring over Warkworth Castle, along the beach to Alnmouth, and passing over Alnwick Castle and Gardens, before returning via Brizlee Tower.
Your voucher includes:
- 30-minute flight experience
- Pre-flight briefing and full kit provided—just bring warm shoes!
- After boarding the microlight, you'll taxi to the take-off point and then it's full power for an exhilarating ascent.
