Morecambe Bay coastal tour to Barrow & back by plane
My wife & I had a great flight with Ken. He’s such a lovely guy who has great knowledge of the area. Clearly an experienced pilot. My wife was quite nervous but he really put her at ease, So much so she actually sat next to him in the front. Would 100% recommend a flight with Ken. Such a fantastic experience
