Customer Reviews for the 60 Minute Microlight Flight Training - Herefordshire
Absolutely amazing. Ive had a few trial flying lessons over the years my family know its a gift that will always be much appreciated so once we were airborne the instructor Andy Richards thoroughly professional and very easy to get on with let me get on with the flying under his watchful eye. The whole experience was friendly, informal and relaxed, and I thoroughly enjoyed every minute. looking forward to next time.....Also thanks to Into the Blue for making it happen. My vouchers were due to expire at the end of 2020, but Im CEV so it would have been foolhardy to use them prevaccination. One quick phone call and they were extended for a further year. By the time I came to use them the firm that they were for was no longer available once again an extremely helpful lady at Into the Blue came to the rescue and swapped them to Shobdon for me.

Fantastic experience of a flex wing 60 minute flight. Thoroughly enjoyable that I want to go back to again and thinking seriously about taking up lessons. The instructor Andy Richards was absolutely brilliant, so informative and great company throughout. Would highly recommend the whole experience for a treat to remember for many a year.
