Fab flight from Blackpool up the coast over Barrow and Ulverston and then back south. Edward was very thorough and put us completely at ease. This was a treat for my father - soon to be 90 years old! When Edward learned some of his history he went all out to make this a very memorable flight for dad - even to manage a quick extra detour over an old haunt which made dad very happy. And letting dad fly the plane for a few minutes was the icing on the cake. Would recommend to all.

We had a wonderful experience flying down the Fylde coast with Alex . Before the flight we had a tour around the various planes in the hangar by a very knowledgeable, friendly and professional 15 year old . The pilot Alex was very friendly and informative and the flight itself was smooth and the views were incredible . Highly recommended
