60 Minute Trial Lessons
Thinking about becoming a pilot, or perhaps you’d just like to give a loved one a taste of flight?
Trial flying lessons can be an unforgettable way to experience taking the controls of an aircraft yourself or for the lucky recipient of a trial voucher. All flights can be logged in your Pilots logbook from just £150.
You will be sitting in the front of the aircraft with access to the dual flight controls under the guidance of your fully certified and highly skilled flight instructor who will explain the process of becoming a Private Pilot and answer any questions you have along the way!
Whether it’s a flying experience for yourself or as a gift, buying a trial flight online is simple and all vouchers are received instantly to your inbox.
NWFT Ltd will endeavour to provide the experiences as described. However in booking each experience it is acknowledged by the customer that there may be occasions when certain factors outside of our control such as air traffic or temporary airspace restrictions as well as unexpected weather conditions may result in the programme being amended or some elements cancelled.
