One Hour Flex Fixed Wing Microlight Combo
About the experience
Experience the thrill of microlighting over picturesque Herefordshire at Shobdon Airfield with this Flex and Fixed Wing combination experience. You now no longer have to decide whether you want to be exposed to the elements or more secluded in a closed cockpit because in this unique experience, you can sample both styles of microlight flying. As you spend 30 minutes exploring each, you'll get incredible views over Clee Hill and the Marches as you get familiar with the wonders of microlight flying and the various controls. As you receive expert tuition from instructors, you'll be mastering the art of flying in no time. However, once your time is up on both flights and you get back to Shobdon, you can relax and enjoy a bite to eat at the on-site café and watch the busy airfield action, or extend your stay with a handy camping and caravan site next to the cider apple orchards. With parachuting, gliding, and other light aircraft activities, Shobdon Airfield is the perfect setting for an unforgettable microlighting weekend in the heart of Herefordshire! If you're ready to embark on a microlight adventure, booking your seat is only a few clicks away.
