About Paul

I specialise in day trips for families of 4 or 5 (weight dependent) for a really fun family day out! Look at my flight listings for popular suggestions, or if there is a destination you have in mind not listed let me know and I will add it. Please contact me first before booking to check availability of aircraft. ---------------- Hi, I am a good safe friendly pilot flying for fun, looking to share my experiences with others on a cost sharing basis. I fly several different types of aircraft, 4-6 seat, single and multi engine propeller aircraft. I generally select an aircraft appropriate to the passengers and route planned, but if you prefer a specific aircraft this can certainly be arranged depending on availability. The aircraft vary in size, speed and cost, as well as how much weight they can carry. Generally for 2 passengers it's a Piper Archer, for 3, the Cessna 182 may suit better, and for 4-5 passengers the Cherokee 6 is required. Twin engine aircraft are overall larger, more comfortable, and have the benefit of being able to continue flight even on only 1 engine so there is an additional safety factor built in. I originally trained in the US where I obtained my FAA PPL (ASEL) and also Instrument Rating (IR). I also hold EASA SEP, MEP, Night and IMC/IR(R) ratings. If I have not listed a specific location or experience you are interested in, please do ask! All my flights are flexible so please contact me so we can make specific arrangements. Check my feedback too from others who have flown with me, you wont be disappointed! Any questions? Do ask me! Please note all my flights are minimum 2 passengers sharing. 4 seat aircraft have maximum 3 passengers sharing but this depends on weight. Sometimes a larger aircraft will be required to carry the weight required, and this will cost a little more. For Family trips we go in the 6 seat aircraft which requires a minimum of 4, maximum 5, though this is also weight dependent.

    Liverpool - day return (for up to 5)

    We had a fantastic day at Aintree thanks to Paul. From start to finish, he couldn’t have been any more informative and helpful. Loved learning bits about the plane and spotting towns and points of interest on the trip up to Liverpool and back. Weather was very kind to us and the clouds even parted for us as we approached Liverpool. Will definitely look to use Paul lots of times in the future. Regards Gary

    Day trip to Duxford

    Paul took 5 of us to Duxford, he was super friendly made us feel welcome and at every step was letting us know what was happening. The flight itself was brilliant can't wait to fly again with Paul

    Solent (Lee) Airport - Family day trip to the beach

    My three boys and myself arranged a flight with Paul to Lee-On-Solent that was absolutely fabulous! Paul made the trip both very enjoyable and easily accessible. Finding Paul through Wingly was nothing short of providential and every aspect of the journey met and exceeded expectations. This was our first time taking a private aircraft and that was particularly enjoyable. The highlight, it must be said, was that my eldest, who has wanted to be a pilot since he was a toddler, got to sit with Paul ...
