Grab this flight, you will not regret it. Sandie is a thoroughly professional pilot and did all she could to facilitate my flight, on arrival she gave me a thorough briefing and explanation of what we would be doing. I was involved in the flight and not merely a passenger. On the return leg I took the controls for a short time, a life long ambition.

Outstanding, this is the best word to describe the flying experience with Sandie.We arranged to meet at the airfield and after initial introductions Sandies first real question was what do you want to get out of today and where do you want to go this was a truly personal experience. For me I really wanted to head up into the Peak District National Park so that is what we did. Once in the air Sandie explained the controls and then the lesson started with a series of turns. So off we headed up to into the peak towards the Ladybower reservoirs which was used to train the Dam Busters. AMAZING.All of the time I was at the controls learning the feel of the Plane and how responsive it is. After leaving The Dams, Sandie asked what else I would like to see so off we went to Chatsworth House. Sandie took the controls to do 2 nice wide laps so I could take photos and the we started back to Tatenhill to conclude an awesome flying experienceWould I recommend it Well put it like this, I got home a Googled Planes for sale

I had a microlight flight with Sandy at Tatenhill Airfield. I really enjoyed it. She knew a lot about the plane and explained the controls and how it differs from a GA plane. She was punctual and friendly. I got a good introduction into microlight flying
