What Can I Expect
Flying lessons in Ayrshire! These flights take off near Cumnock in lovely East Ayrshire at a small, private airstrip for that ‘grass roots’ feel to your experience.
You'll be meeting Martin. In another life, he's an A320 training captain and examiner. But when he's not with pilots in the simulators, he loves nothing more than chasing clouds in the skies above Ayrshire in his light sports aircraft.
The Skyranger Nynja is a brilliant little plane. Actually classed as microlight, the aircraft is fixed wing, with a fully-enclosed cockpit, so you're nice and comfy for your flight.
We are offering vouchers for 30, 60 and 90-minute flights. You might stay local and see amazing places like Loch Doon and the Doon Valley, or head to the Firth of Clyde to spot the Forth road and rail bridges.
If you opt for the 90-minute lesson, there's loads of choice all around Ayrshire for your flight itinerary. Maybe you'd like to do a little landaway to a nearby island like Bute or Mull, where the airstrip is literally next to the beach? Or perhaps you'd like to get as much hands-on flying experience as possible?
With excellent tuition, a funky little plane and stunning aerial backdrop, isn't it time you booked in for your flying lesson out of this very discrete airstrip in East Ayrshire? Buy your vouchers online with Into The Blue.
