Bedford Microlight Airsports Ltd

A great place to learn how to fly, Pete and the team are always around to help and offer advice. Turn up any time, put the kettle on, have a chat and before long you will have one of those flying license things . They welcome folk who just turn up, fly ins , and trial flights. See you there....

Always a warm welcome !

Gifted an hour's flight by my family but 18 months later in still without that flight due to multiple cancellations by the company. Always cancelling on weather grounds, even when it's been the most beautiful of summer days (remember the sun-kissed heatwave?). The latest attempt was given the go ahead 90 mins before the flight but then cancelled when we were just 10 minutes from the airfield. Lacklustre apologies and little empathy - indeed I was made to feel grateful that the gift certificate didn't have an expiry date. Refusal to give refunds so I would suggest anyone tempted by this thinks long and hard if paying up front. Absolutely gutted.

Landed here on the last Sunday of June, flying conditions further north didn't look too promising and with a deteriorating weather forecast I decided to stay overnight. Pete provided jerry cans and a lift to the local petrol station to get fuel he also help secure my gyrocopter overnight, all free of charge. This is well run and really friendly airfield, the owner Pete has much to be proud of.

I got this experience as a gift for my wife it was her birthday. She loved it said it was fantastic when she arrived back the smile on her face was worth everything and more.

It was a fantastic day, I highly recommend it, and it is a very good introduction to aviation.

Active microlight club and training facility. Trial flights available.

Excellent Microlight centre, Pete and the crew always give a friendly welcome both for members of the public wishing to take a trial flight and visiting pilots.Tea, coffee and snacks on the weekends.
