West Lancashire Microlight School

Absolute disgrace of a company. We purchased a voucher over 6 months ago and have been fobbed off ever since. Their booking system is awful. If a flight gets cancelled for weather or any other reason, you have to wait a further 28 days to reschedule as they don't have enough instructors. They also don't offer any refunds despite us not being informed of this. Lastly "Carl" is a very rude man who out the phone down on us despite us having a query. Customer service skills are a disgrace. DONT DEAL WITH THIS COMPANY.

Great place to fly for fun! No aviator sungalsses, Hi-viz or epaulettes in sight.

Got a silver Voucher (an hour) as an Xmas present from my parents. Had to book a couple of times but purely due to weather - in the end Carl suggested a day when he'd got a good weather report for.

What I though might have been a scary experience (previously done a parachute drop and paragliding) turned out to be completely the opposite. Very calming, great fun and well worth waiting for the right weather. Felt 100% safe in the craft and with Carl (pilot)

Carl was very professional, giving me details of what he was going to do, how the craft would react, when I might feel 'bumps' etc. Great communication throughout the flight, answering all my (probably mundane) questions and having a good knowledge of the area. You even get to have a go at steering for a little while.

If you've never considered a Mircolight Flight - DO, you won't be disappointed :-)
