It was a bonus to be able to take the controls but if you don't want to do that you can just sit back and enjoy the ride. One of the best experiences I've ever had that left me buzzing!

The flight experience was fun and exciting. I could also use “awesome” but I prefer “beautiful”, simply because, for me, it was. Brad soon passed control of the aircraft over to the novice and I had an exhilarating time flying around the Bath and Bristol area whilst Brad pointed out points of interest but most importantly for me, explaining how to fly the aircraft, explaining the theory, analysing my mistakes and providing encouragement.
Simply a great experience and would recommend anyone to give it a go.

Well I was convinced my surprise was going to be a skydive so when we arrived at the airstrip and I saw the size of the runway and then the... read more microlites, I was a little bit crestfallen. But hey, don't look a gift horse in the mouth eh?
I actually really really enjoyed the flight that had been bought for me! The weather was perfect as far as I was concerned - nice and bright and clear and relatively warm (warm enough to think about not putting on a flight suit... but I did. You should too). A bit of cloud around is apparently good. Brad (the pilot/business owner) is extremely attentive in explaining all about the aircraft, the procedures, the weather etc and in answering any questions you might have. On top of that he's an extremely affable guy, I really enjoyed his company (quite aside from the rather vital fact that he was the one flying the aircraft!). I know next to nothing about the area we were flying over, but his commentary on various things we could see was welcome, helpful and entertaining. Between us we even managed to work out the name of the Tory politician whose country pile we were looking at - Brad had forgotten and obviously I didn't know (Jacob Rees-Mogg btw).
We flew for well over the time that had been paid for (I'm guessing Brad didn't have another customer lined up straight after me). We went to over a mile in altitude. I was allowed to fly for a bit.... quite a bit! (It's a piece of piss, who needs a pilot apart from taking off and landing?) We turned the engine off and glided for a bit. We turned the engine back on. We saw south Wales, and north Cornwall. We had fun!
Brad was just as attentive after we landed, offering tea and biccies and chatting. Fortunately my partner (who'd bought my surprise) had had another pilot to sit and chat with during my flight and she said that he'd helped the time pass for her and also answered all her questions and explained what we were doing and why... it's not obvious why you sit at the end of the runway for 5 minutes before taking off.
In these pandemic times you should know that Brad pays excellent attention to the health and safety of his guests, his future guests, and of course himself. I was impressed with his attention to detail and was completely confident that I wasn't about to pick up anything catching before, during, or after my flight.
All in all an excellent surprise. You should get somebody to buy you a flight too!

Long time coming due to Covid-19 however we’ll worth the wait. I had been in touch with Brad a number of times both by phone and email. He has been... read more really helpful and positive throughout so that when I attended for the flight I was already confident in his ability. On arrival he made us (my wife came along) feel welcome and he talked us through everything from how to dress to what to expect taking off.
The flight itself was brilliant the views amazing, you are in contact with Brad throughout via a radio headset. He points out points of interest and lets you have a go at controlling the microflite whilst being himself in control throughout. He is a top bloke who obviously loves what he does. Thanks for the experience,

Wow! What a thrill! I had a long wait for my microlight experience thanks to Covid lockdowns and weather hiccups, but it was well worth that wait, and... read more Great Western Airsports willingly extended my experience voucher timescale. Instructor Brad is very affable, and sets you at ease straight away. He gave a brief introduction on the ground then we got straight on with a quick & smooth take-off into the air for this 30-minute flight near Bath. Brad described each of the controls and demonstrated them before handing over to me to try them out flying the plane. This was a brilliant birthday gift from my partner - can’t thank her enough - and I thoroughly recommend it.

My 11 year old daughter loved the experience of flying with Brad over Bath. He took all the necessary COVID safety measures, explained the flight procedures and off they flew... read more for 30 mins.
My only comment would be the lack of facilities for sitting inside; so take a flask of warm drinks with you.
The flight was 5*, just the facilities let it down, but don't let that stop you. You can always buy hot chocolate at the Farm shop over the road.

Perfect socially distanced birthday party gift for my 11 year old daughter - a fly past her school , our house and the stunning countryside around Bath.
It's... read more pretty basic on site, so take food & drinks, and wellies too as it was quite muddy.
However, Brad was delightful and the experience was fabulous.
tip: nip to the farm shop over the road for hot chocolate.
If there was a warm place to sit & wait I would give this a 5, and in the summer this would not be an issue.
