The Main Event

The perfect way to try something incredible, this half day flying course to the Isle of Wight is one you won’t forget!

Depart from Popham, heading south towards the coastline, where you are treated to stunning vistas of Portsmouth, Langstone and Chichester Harbour. The journey then takes you westward, crossing over the Solent to reach the Isle of Wight.

Following a pause for refreshments at the Aviator Cafe in Sandown, circle the island and cross the Solent once more, then make your way north to return to Popham. This half-day adventure in the skies provides an unrivalled introduction to the joys of Microlight Flying, ideal for either the participant or as a gift.

Each leg of the flight averages 1 hour and 15 minutes. The full training is to a CAA approved syllabus with an instructor with over 30 years flying experience and 5000 plus hours on a range of different aircraft, including light aircraft, gliders, and both types of microlight to attain National Private Pilot's License (Microlight).

Important Bits

If your flight is cancelled due to poor weather conditions then you will be offered alternative dates.

When

Average flight time each way is 1hr 15 minutes.
