Description

Flying in a microlight is a real thrill – and the views are outstanding. Climb into the closed cockpit of a dual-controlled fixed wing microlight with a CAA approved instructor and get ready for a unique flying experience. Soar to sensational heights, sit back and soak in bird’s-eye views of Northamptonshire as the instructor shows you just what this three axis Cosmik Aviation Eurostar microlight can do. The exhilarating adventure kicks off with a detailed briefing, introduction to the microlight and, once you’re in air, there’s even a chance to take charge of the controls to find out just what it’s like to be a real microlight pilot – a thrill which is sure to be remembered for years to come. Will you catch the flying bug?
