Microlight flight from Strathaven, South Glasgow.

About Your Experience

Take to the sky with this microlight flight. You'll be flying from Strathaven Airfield just South of Glasgow. You will experience for yourself the fantastic feeling of flying in one of these small and robust aircraft.

After a briefing on your flight and carrying out full pre-flight safety checks you’ll taxi out for take off. You’ll be able to hear your pilot talking to air traffic control and other aircraft in the area. Once you are airborne you’ll climb to over 2000 ft. Up here you’ll experience panoramic views across central Scotland.

During your flight you’ll have the opportunity to fly past the famous landmarks in the area including New Lanark, the Falls of Clyde, Tinto Hill and the castles and mansions along the Clyde. Your itinerary is agreed before your flight and you can even request a fly past of your home!

You’ll experience first hand the microlight climbing, turning cruising and descending. You can take your camera on the flight as long as it has somewhere to secure a safety strap to. Throughout your flight you will be able to talk to your pilot through the intercom system.
