I have had my private pilots licence for over thirty years but have only been able to make good use of it since taking early retirement. I fly purely for fun and love to share the thrill of flight with others. If possible I only fly in good weather to make the most of the experience.

One hour Air Experience Flight from Coventry
Fantastic and highly recommended! Nick’s communication before our flight was faultless, right down to seamlessly rebooking when the weather let us down!

He talked us though every step of the pre flight process and was a wealth of knowledge during our flight. He was great with our 10 year old daughter (this was her first...
