Should I buy this experience?

Who it’s for

From Warwick to Burton upon Trent, if you’re in or around the West Midlands area and you’ve always fancied going up in light aircraft or helicopter, this is the page you need to be browsing!

Who it’s not for

If you’re not close to the West Midlands and want to fly, take a look at our main Flying Lessons hub for trial flights and experiences around the UK.



Flying lessons around the West Midlands

For anyone around the Birmingham area who wants to fly, you’ve got flying schools all over the West Midlands to choose from. From commercial regional airports like Coventry, to small privately-owned airstrips at Fisherwick near Lichfield, there’s plenty of choice!

Steeped in aviation history

Of course, the West Midlands is known for its industrial background in both automotive and aviation engineering. Don’t be surprised if there are vestiges of WW2 at your take off location - the chances are it was an RAF base and it may still have the original pre-war control tower or hangars!

A full fleet of aircraft

We are offering lessons at a full range of West Midlands flying schools. That means there are lots of aircraft to choose from. How about soaring over the skies of Stourbridge in a glider? Maybe you fancy a helicopter lesson? Or how about a flight in a microlight? They’re great value for money and there are lots of departure points in the West Midlands.

A choice of lesson durations

Most of our flying lesson suppliers in the West Midlands offer 30 and 60-minute flights. If you’re serious about learning to fly, look out for ‘pilot day’ packages that offer multiple flights across a half or full day.

Great views on all lessons!

The whole of the West Midlands is such a varied area that you could be seeing everything from busy criss-crossing motorways and conurbations, to rolling fields filled with sheep and crops galore. Wherever you go for your flight, it’s amazing to be able to look down on the world from above.
