    Take your first lesson in the Piper Super Cub with a 30-, 45-, or 60-minute flight. This beautiful aircraft started life with the Dutch air force as an L21B. It has been lovingly restored and is used for teaching the all-important tailwheel stick-and-rudder skills that this type of aircraft is renowned for worldwide. Your lesson will count towards your qualification should you continue to learn to fly.

    • Full briefing from your Flying Instructor

    There is plenty of space for friends and family to come and watch you take off and land. We do ask that children are supervised at all times.

    Dress Code

    There is no need to wear any special clothing but comfort is definitely the order of the day. We do ask that you wear shoes that will enable you to get a good feel of the rudder pedals, therefore no heavy boots, we prefer trainers or deck shoes. Make sure you bring your sunglasses too!
