Microlighting is probably the most exhilarating form of powered flight, being very
light maneuverable and easy to fly aircraft they are often operated from any reasonably
level farmers field and with over 500 such airfields dotted around the UK an 'away
day' can take on a whole new perspective.
With modern Microlights being able to cruise
at 80-mph and with a range in excess of 300 miles on a single tank of fuel many British
Microlight pilots now make regular forays into Europe and beyond, some having even
flown to Australia.
Being located 6 miles to the North of Derby on the fringes of
the beautiful Derbyshire Dales Ram Air is ideally situated for an introduction to
this fascinating past time, and with pilots at the club from a young lady of 21 years
to a young gentlemen in his mid 70's this really is an activity for all.
