Flying vouchers available for England’s south coast
A flying school based on the south coast is offering all-year-round gift vouchers, guaranteeing excitement for anyone from the age of 13.
Flight Performance Training, which is based at the Brighton City Airport in Shoreham, has a range of gift vouchers available. But be warned, flying is addictive, and your present could be the start of a marvellous new hobby or even kick-start a whole new career.
The aerobatic experience
These are high energy, high adrenaline flights in the safe hands of the highly experienced instructors, including former Red Arrows pilots, aerobatic champions, display and competition pilots and others.
Experience a fun-filled flight over the South Downs and white cliffs of the coast, take control and feel the G-Force as you loop and roll through the sky – this experience can be as wild or gentle as the customer wishes, just let your pilot know.
Prices start from £199.
The Red Arrows experience
That’s right, get a taste of life for the most elite air crew in the UK, as recent Red Arrows pilot Toby Keeley takes you on the T67 Firefly and puts you through some of the amazing manoeuvres his former team are famed for, all with stunning views along the south coast.
Prices for this unforgettable experience start from £329.
The formation experience
This is an unforgettable, breath-taking experience for two as you and a friend fly just feet away from each other, with the option of high energy aerobatics and tail chasing, pushing you further and faster than you could ever imagine. Or simply enjoy the excitement of flying close to another aircraft.
Whether its high adrenaline or flying up close it will be an unforgettable experience.
The price for this once-in-a-lifetime trip is £559 for two people.
A trial lesson
Do you feel the thrill of flying in your blood, but want to try it at a more sedate pace to give you time to savour it all? Maybe you see yourself having a career in the air? If tricks and manoeuvres aren’t for you, but soaring high above the South Downs countryside is, then a trial lesson is the perfect way to get a taste of the pilot’s life, with time to enjoy the view and take in the whole experience.
If you are a budding future pilot the time spent with the instructor will count towards your Private Pilot’s Licence – this could be the greatest gift you ever receive.
Trial lessons start from £159.
Who can take part?
One of the best things about flying is its suitability for just about anyone. As long as you are over 13, and fit enough to climb in and out of the aircraft, you can enjoy a trip with the Flight Performance Training crew.
