Lune Valley Kirkby Lonsdale & back
Ken was great, friendly and professional. We had arranged a flight for my 87 year old father who suffers from dementia and mobility issues. Ken helped dad into the plane and was very patient explaining everything. He took us through the Lune valley, up towards Ingleborough, we flew over dad's house and circle it a few times to make sure we got some good pictures. Would definitely recommend, and make sure you take a camera!
