Willie gave us a fantastic flight from Turweston to Sandown in his superb aircraft. He was friendly, welcoming, and made the whole experience easy and fun. He even let me take the controls mid-flight, which brought back great memories from my own flying days. His uncle John met us at Sandown, and both of them were a pleasure to spend time with. We had a brilliant day and will definitely be booking another flight with Willie soon.
