Give them a gift like no other with a flying lesson from Red Letter Days! Learning to fly a plane is the perfect gift for lovers of all things aviation, giving them time in the sky with a trained pilot by their side. Planes? Flight simulations? Microlights? Take control of them all.

A flying lesson is a wonderful gift for any special occasion. Commemorate someone's 50th birthday or get the ultimate Christmas gift for her. Flying lessons are picture-perfect presents for aspiring aviators and for those who love to try new things and learn new skills.

Learn to Fly a Plane

Take to the skies with a flying lesson. Choose from a variety of light aircraft flying lessons at a number of locations across the UK and hop aboard a light aircraft. After being briefed by a professional pilot, passengers are taken for a ride in the sky. After enjoying the views from above, the co-pilots are given the opportunity to take control of the plane themselves! Explorers walk away with a taste for aviation and newfound skills that could develop into an ongoing hobby! Typically, a flying lesson lasts between 30 minutes to an hour, but longer lessons are also available.

A Variety of Aircraft to Choose From

There are a number of aircraft options to choose from when booking a flying lesson. Learn to fly a variety of microlight planes and gliders with expert tuition from start to finish. Alternatively, opt for a helicopter flying lesson. Learn how to command a chopper and take off vertically from the ground, before soaring over stunning countryside and cityscapes, all while under the care and instruction of a trained pilot. For those looking for an experience a little closer to the ground, a flight simulator experience is a perfect gift! With amazingly realistic controls and HD displays, this immersive experience is not to be missed and serves as a great introduction to flying and aviation.
