About Nick
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. There are many places to see and airfields to fly to within an hour of Coventry Airport. A fun trip might be, say, a 30 min flight to another airfield, land for a coffee and cake (or bacon sandwich!) and return…maybe including a flight over your house (if airspace allows). Alternatively lots of longer trips are possible. Don't forget to bring your camera/phone! Let me know what you would like to do or contact me for ideas through Wingly. IMPORTANT: Please message me before making a booking to check availability of the aircraft with Coventry Aero Club with whom I fly. After a booking has been confirmed you will, of course, be fully briefed before the flight, and kept up-to-date with the weather.

An unforgettable first light aircraft flight for me and my dad, flying over Dad's favourite places for his 70th birthday. Nick was excellent from start to finish, keeping me up to date on weather for our flight and postponing when the weather was less than favourable. On the day Nick made us feel completely at ease and spoke to us throughout the flight via headset pointing out different landmarks. Nick was even able to accommodate a special request to fly over each of our homes on the return leg...

Incredible day flying to Duxford with Nick as our pilot. From the moment we started talking, Nick was exceptionally polite and made both my dad and me feel completely at ease. Despite the terrible weather we’ve been having recently, Nick remained flexible and very easy to deal with, ensuring our day went ahead as smooth as possible. His professionalism and attention to detail were top-notch, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend Nick for anyone looking for a fantas...

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! Our flight today was perfect, Nick had discussed and arranged a great flight plan and a pass over our house on the return leg. Nick is a confident pilot and his experience shows. 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...
