Your Visit to the airfield

​

You should find the answers to most questions here or on other pages of our website but if there is something we haven't covered just drop us an e mail, phone or text.

 

Family and friends are welcome to come along and spectate but please ensure young children are supervised at all times.

Well behaved dogs welcome but must be kept on a lead and under close control at all times; propellers and dogs don't mix at all well !

Just wear sensible clothing on the day and dress as if you were going for a walk. Our modern fleet of aircraft are fully enclosed and are equipped with a heating system to keep you warm as toast on the coldest of days.

The Weather

Our aim is to give you a memorable flight for all the right reasons so it is sometimes necessary to cancel your flight due to the weather. Sometimes the weather on the ground can be quite pleasant but at 1000' it can be a very different story!

We may actually be flying even though we have cancelled your flight, This is because we have to train student pilots to fly in less than perfect conditions so that they are prepared for all eventualities once they get their pilots licence.

                                                 

 

Pilots Lounge

 

The pilots Lounge is comfortably equipped with leather sofas and a dining area.

New for 2015 is the addition of WiFi and a flat screen Smart TV to enable pilots and students to access the latest online flight planning tools or just relax and watch TV.

Friends and family accompanying someone lucky enough to have a gift voucher are welcome to use these facilities and we usually have a few DVD's and games etc around to keep young children entertained for the duration.

 

If you are unfortunate enough to have your flight canceled we will reschedule at a mutually convenient time. Whilst we will always try to cancel you in good time the weather can change quite rapidly so this is not always possible.

Food And Drink
Within the Pilots Lounge is a small catering facility where you can purchase hot and cold drinks and snacks such as
  • Bacon Rolls
  • Toasties
  • Soup
  • Sandwiches
  • Crisps
  • Chocolate bars
Manned most weekdays and weekends
otherwise self service and place your money in the honesty box
