This is a gift that will really get them on their way. This includes:
- five hours of flight training;
- temporary flying club membership
- The Pilot’s Handbook
- all you need to know for your ground exams
- a copy of Colin MacKinnon’s book: On A Wing And A Prayer
- a copy of the BMAA training syllabus
- a personal Pilot’s Logbook
By the end of five hours of flying lessons, they should be confident in handling the aircraft and preparing to start flying the circuit around the airfield and learning the approach to landing.
NPPL Private Pilot Licence
As with all our gift flights, if you get hooked on flying then the time will count towards the minimum hours required to gain your NPPL private pilot’s licence.
