Microlight aircraft are often described as ‘aerial motorcycles’ as they have an excellent all-round viewing platform. Feel the wind in your hair as you learn to fly a microlight aircraft during this Melbourne-based microlight training and scenic flight. The perfect gift for any aircraft enthusiast!

If you have ever looked skyward and wondered what a real flight is all about, you should try microlighting. Microlight aircraft, or trikes, evolved from hang-gliders through the need for safe, strong and transportable aircraft that were able to take off from small runways. Because of these elements, microlighting is one of the fastest-growing forms of aviation. And now you can learn to fly a microlight aircraft!

When you arrive for your microlight training and scenic flight your instructor will give you a pre-flight briefing. During this briefing you will learn the basics of flying a microlight and about the safety requirements. You will then be seated and harnessed in the aircraft. After the safety checks have been completed you are ready for take-off!

Once you are airborne you have the opportunity to take the controls and get a feel for flying the aircraft. Otherwise you can just sit back and enjoy the experience, taking in the beautiful views. Look out over the city of Melbourne, the coastline and the bay.

This flight may be used towards your time to gain a Pilot’s Certificate if you decide to go ahead with training!
