What Can I Expect
A full range of flying lessons at Blackbushe Airport! We are offering vouchers for 30 and 60-minute flights in two and four-seater aircraft out of this vibrant business and general aviation airport in Surrey.
Blackbushe is in a fantastic location. Situated on the A30 just off the M3, it's central to loads of places like Basingstoke, Reading, Wokingham, Bagshot and Farnham, so easy to get to from Surrey and the surrounding counties of Hampshire and Berkshire.
Two-seater flights are usually operated by the club-owned Cessna 152s, whilst Piper PA28s are used for the four-seater lessons. Both aircraft are well-known for being agile, robust and easy to fly (even if to you it all seems far too complicated at first glance!).
And for those of you who don't know Blackbushe Airport in Surrey, it has a very rich history. It played a huge part in WW2 as RAF Hartfordbridge, which meant the main A30 had to be closed, as the road crossed the southern perimeter of the runway. Can you imagine the chaos that'd cause today?
Post-war, the airfield's name was changed to RAF Blackbushe and became a training centre. This flying school has been resident at Blackbushe since 1985, so you're in safe and experienced hands for your flight.
The instructors at Blackbushe are all super motivated to get you flying so (if you're keen), they will get you on the controls for the maximum amount of time during your lesson. And of course, all teaching is geared to you.
With good on-site facilities and an excellent weather record, flying lessons at Blackbushe are a great choice for anyone looking to have a taste of flying a plane themselves. Buy your flight vouchers online in just a few clicks, quicker than you can say ‘prepare for take off'!
