Additional Information

Embarking on a motorglider journey over the landscape of Devonshire is an extraordinary adventure. Our aeroplane is not only serene and cozy, but also provides incomparable visibility, making it ideal for capturing aerial images.

Motorgliders are inherently secure and efficient aircrafts, with their extended wings enabling seamless glides even when the engine is off.

The 30-minute Motorglider Experience affords you a spectacular bird’s eye vista of Devon, along with the option to maneuver the controls and personally fly the aircraft, should you desire.

With your pilot being a certified flying instructor, you will have the chance to learn how to manage the aircraft’s controls and even potentially pilot us back to the airfield.

Great Experience - Early Valentine Present from Wife! - This was a great experience. Ian was very professional and calm. He carefully went through the pre-flight checks and explained the controls to me throughout the flight. As it was quite windy, we didn't glide but flew instead. As I had flown briefly 40 years ago briefly, he was keen for me to try again. He gave me a really long time at the controls and encouraged me all the time showing me the impact of each control. Excellent views and such a feeling of calm and safety. Ian is a very genuine guy and it was a pleasure to spend an hour with him.
