I very much enjoyed the experience and strongly recommend it. My instructor was Dave at Staverton. He explained the aircraft controls and instruments in a clear way prior to departure and then gave me control of the aircraft from almost immediately after take off through to start of approach. Great experience go try it.
The flying experience itself was amazing Alex the instructor at Staverton Airport was great, his whole demeanor put me at ease and I thoroughly enjoyed the experience. He also took the controls a couple of times to allow me to take pictures and video.Into The Blue are a great company with excellent communications. Due to the pandemic they pushed back the end date on my experience three times so that I wouldnt miss out. I cant praise them enough.
Fantastic, I dont even like flying but the instructor was great, reassuring and let me fly for most of the time. Thoroughly enjoyable, great staff and an amazing experience.
Excellent experience Instructor was great and managed to fly for quite a lot of the hour.
30 minute flying lesson. Despite the covid issues, everyone worked hard to arrange a suitable date. On the date, everything was great. Good check in safety briefing and the full time at the controls. Recommended.
Amazing experience and great pilot even though it was windy
A well organised trip and a great experience. All staff were friendly and helpful. Would certainly do again if the chance arises
What a great way to spend an afternoon. Very friendly people in the flying school. Practically the whole flight was spent flying the plane the pilot did the take off and the landing. An excellent experience which I hope to do again.
Very good experience, friendly and well organised. Will be going again
Brilliant day out out with a superb pre flight briefing and great flight.
Was brought this for birthday present. Excellent from start to finish. Faultless booking system, had to contact airport direct but excellent service. And kept up to date ghroughout booking and flying experience.
Amazing. I had a great time with an instructor who knew the are that I live so was able to fly over.He made me feel like I was in charge almost Would highly recommend this experience.
Thoroughly enjoyed this experience. Dave Houghton was a brilliant instructor. He was knowledgeable, articulate and calm throughout. He kindly allowed my wife to join me and ensured the flight included a route and sights which we would be familiar with and enjoy. We now have wonderful memories of the day and felt Dave went above and beyond to ensure customer satisfaction.

Absolutely amazing experience. I had the 30 minute trial flight package. Apart from the take off I was flying.. over Gloucester, then Stroud, my home, local places from a new standpoint.Popped up through the clouds into the blue sky and sunshine and back in over Cheltenham to make my first landingAll in 30 minutes Or so.Fantastic pilot, put me fully at ease. Explained the basics really well and encouraged me to fly as much as I wanted.The smile lasted for ages.
