30 Minute Light Aircraft Flight in Cambridgeshire

Head to the clouds and experience the sensation of the light aircraft, whose early incarnation was invented by the Wright brothers in the early 1900s. Start off with an explanation of basic flying techniques and a full safety briefing, before hitting the skies in a dual-controlled two-seater (either a Cessna 150 or 152) training craft with a seasoned instructor. Enjoy magnificent views which unfold at altitude and (at the pilot's discretion) even take the reins to experience incredible the feeling of flying a plane.
