What a brilliant experience! Flew out of North Weald and was great to share the experience with my young daughter who got to sit in the cockpit with me before take-off. Mark the pilot was great, and was fortunate with the weather to be able to see for miles! Got some great pics of some important places to me and felt like we were up there for ages. A lifelong dream fulfilled! Amazing day...thank you

Absolutely loved the experience. They were running a little late due to fog but that just meant that we had time to have food & drinks in the cafe. North Weald is a great location with so much going on & was brilliant as my little boy could watch me taking off & landing & was even allowed to look at the planes & sit in the cockpit etc which just made the whole day more special for us. The pilot was brilliant & I was amazed at how long I actually got to fly the plane for. I highly recommend it. I was bought it as a present & it was really different & very special
