The pilot instructor was an excellent communicator and a thorough professional. I asked if we could fly over my home town which was about 15mins away which was achieved with two circles than back to Norwich airport.As a first flight experience I hadnt appreciated radio communication between student and the pilot would be quite restricted as the control tower comms naturally took precedent. This reduced my opportunity to ask for more hands on time as I would have liked to make more directional change manoeuvres to get a better feel.

A fantastic experience, the thrill of turning the plane and the views were amazing. I flew the plane for a good 40 minutes, my wife was with me too in the back seat. The pilot was great, he made us welcome and at ease very quickly. Would I do it again absolutely.

It was a brilliant experience. The instructor Ross was so friendly and treated me as he would a student, rather than maybe coddling me as an experience day user. I would highly recommend the hour flying experience because it gives you enough time to fly the aircraft for long periods of time. It has made me want to do further.

From the second we arrived to the second we left this was a fantastic and truly personal experience. Ive done experience days before and its just queue, queue, queue, but this was just myself, my gf as the passenger and Ross, our instructor. From the briefing to blocks off to landing everything ran like clockwork and was flawless. The overall flying experience was an absolute treat and I was amazed at how much time I had control. Im sure Ill be booking again.

Fantastic experience from start to finish. This was a present for my husband but I was able to go as well. After a very informative briefing we were taken to the airfield for our flight, we took off from Norwich and flew straight to the coast, following the coast line to Bacton then headed back inland. My husband loved every second of it. Richard our pilot was fantastic really made the day, thank you.Highly recommended, my husband cant wait to do it again

Huge thanks to all at Into the Blue and Premiere Flight Training at Norwich. Everyone so helpful and friendly. First booking fell foul of conditions but rebooked without any problem at all. Turned up on the day to be met by my instructor who was very thorough on the safety briefing without being overpowering. Discussed what was the best plan to fulfill my hopes during the flight. Again a very thorough briefing on the aircraft and preflight planning checklist, all of which was a lot to take in from my previous flying in the 1960s After clearing Norwich we were treated to the wonderful views of North Norfolk. I am sure John was sitting on his hands as he patiently talked me into resurrecting some of my dormant flying skills some with greater or lesser success The remainder of the hour flew past very rapidly and enjoyably. Very, very good value for money and very enjoyable. Absolutely shattered at the end of it with that level of concentration. Would recommend this experience for anyone. You can try as little or as much as you want. Thanks again to all and in particular John Whightman.

I have just completed a1hr flying lesson out of Norwich Airport. This was bought for me as a big birthday present and has to be one of the best presents Ive ever had. It was an amazing experience and something I would like to do again and again As it was a four seater aircraft my son was able to occupy the back seat and hopefully he got some good photos. All the staff are very welcoming and my pilot instructor David was brilliant.This is the second time Ive been as my son actually did a flight this time last year for his 16th birthday again with David. You get to take control for long periods and unless youve experienced it its hard to explain just how great it is. If you dont mind flying this is something which is a must and should be on your list of things to do
