Description

The longest (and therefore most expensive) of my pre-planned flight routes, however, the stunning views and variety of scenery is worth every penny. Interesting coastlines, rolling hills of the North York Moors and even a fly-by of York itself since it's on the way home. There is no other flight plan that gives you a better all-in-one sightseeing experience than this. Departing Sandtoft northeastbound, you'll get great views of the Humber estuary (and bridge) in the distance right off the bat....

I'm a private pilot living in Sheffield and based out of Sandtoft airfield, occasionally flying out of Gamston too. As well as having my standard PPL licence I also have qualifications to fly at night and in poor weather. This is something that comes in very useful in the UK, where conditions can change significantly in the 1-2 hours between takeoff and landing!

    Excellent experience today with Sean. Sean was very informative and made my slightly nervous wife very at ease. Throughly enjoyed every minute including the brief stint of flying the plane. Would highly recommend and would definitely book further trips with Sean.

    Sean was friendly and very good at his job. This flight was a 70th birthday present from my family and I chose it because I have many happy family memories of my late husband and children visiting the Yorkshire coast, North Yorkshire Moons Railway and York. Sean’s flight plan took on board all these memories that I talked to him about and despite the visibility being a bit reduced at times made my flight a wonderful experience which I will treasure. Thank you Sean.

    Picturesque Peak District from Sandtoft Airfield

    What a morning with Sean. An extremely friendly pilot, who greatest us on time at the airfield. He guided us to the aeroplane and helped us board. We were soon underway and up in the air. Sean pointed out the land marks as we went around the Peak District allowing all the passengers to see the sights, turn his plane so both sides of the plane had a great view. We had a smooth landing at the end of the flight where we retired to the airfield cafe. What a fantastic pilot and a great trip sight see...

    Whitby & the North York Moors from Sandtoft Airfield

    My husband bought me a Wingly flight as a birthday present. I’d wanted to fly up the Yorkshire Coast as part of my bucket list. The flight was everything I’d dreamed it would be, and more. Sean spoke to my husband and tailored the flight to cover everything I wanted to see, it was just awesome. We landed hours ago but I’m still buzzing and grinning from ear to ear. Sean was a brilliant pilot, and it was breezy! I can’t thank you Sean for making my birthday experience and a big dream come true. H...
