About the experience

Jet off into the skies with an exhilarating 20-minute microlight flight from the fantastic Darley Moor Airfield in Derbyshire! With a variety of aerial activities on offer, this is the perfect opportunity to experience the thrill of flying. Chief Flying Instructor Chris Dawes and his partner Judy run this Derbyshire microlight school. Judy, an MBE holder, is a world record breaker and a multiple-time world champion. Together, they make an unbeatable team, their passion for the sport evident in their dedication and extensive background. All the instructors are CAA-approved, ensuring you’re in excellent hands. The school offers both types of microlights to choose from. Flexwing microlights have a hang-glider shaped canopy with a small open cockpit in tandem, while fixed-wing microlights, despite looking like conventional airplanes, are lightweight with controls similar to light aircraft and side-by-side seating. Flying out of Darley Moor Airfield, you'll be treated to stunning aerial views of Dove Dale, Ashbourne, and Carsington Water, among other beauties. Whether you’re a flying enthusiast or a novice, don’t miss this 20-minute experience. Book now and take to the skies!

Mark Eustace
Amazing experience. The people were great, really friendly and very helpful. The skies were clear and the view fantastic. Flying in a microlight flex wing is very different to being in a plane. You need to try it to understand. I recommend this experience. If you have a sense of adventure, you'll love it.
Marti Trujols
Amazing experience difficult to put into words. Very friendly and helpful staff and the pilot/instructor, Steve, very professional and knowledgeable. (he really "lives" flying) made me feel very relaxed and safe throughout the flight. Really really good. Planning to do it all over again!!
Paul Johnson

Thoroughly enjoyed the flight .. Though more edgy than I expected. Will tell friends of my experience, but leave it up to them rather than 'recommend'
Owen Sizer
For someone who lived in Derbyshire as a child went to school in Matlock, camped , walked, over many years,it was fantastic. I extended my flight and at 80 yrs old I would recomend this to any one..People at Ashbourne were great .
Nigel Hibberd
Yes would definitely recommend the microlite flight from Ashbourne to anyone. The set up is very friendly and they do an extra film (£30) of your experience from a camera fixed to the wing In theory the discussion between instructor and you should be captured but that did not happen. But the views on the film reflect very much what I saw. I was allowed to fly the microlite for a while and the hour counts to your pilots licence if you wish to pursue that. They even let my grandson sit in a cockpit of a tiger moth parked on the field I would definitely go again. NH
Michael Hill
Purchased this experience from Intotheblue. Excellent company no hassle deal was as stated and very good value for money. Did microlight experience at Darley Moor Airfield near Ashbourne. From the moment we arrived all the staff were really friendly and put you at ease. This was my first microlight flight and Mark my pilot was relaxed and explained all the safety procedures and what would happen on the flight. It was truly amazing to take off and fly over the derwent valley countryside of the derbyshire peak district including dovedale, thorpe cloud and the stepping stones. I totally recommend this experience for the most brilliant day of my life. I am 70 years old so you are never too old to try this experience.
