Summer Holiday Ideas? Take a Trial Flying Lesson and see Kent from above? ✈️☁️
There’s no better place to experience flying than at Headcorn Aerodrome (Official) with its historic, all-grass WW2 airfield! Whether you're a thrill seeker or taking the first step toward a Private Pilot's License (PPL), our trial lessons let you fly the plane with an expert instructor by your side.
Right now, if you buy a Trial Lesson for one person, you could be lucky enough to fly in G-BPME, a Cessna 152 wrapped head to tail for The OddBalls Foundation. Founded in 2015, it is the UK’s leading charity raising awareness of Testicular Cancer - the most common cancer affecting men aged 15–49 in the UK, and both highly treatable and curable when caught early. The loud paint is the point: to break the stigma, get men talking, and make checking yourself normal. Those conversations save lives.

For One Person: £𝟏𝟒𝟏.𝟕𝟓
For Two People: £𝟏𝟕𝟐.𝟐𝟎
Aerobatic Flight (for the brave!) £𝟏𝟗𝟓.𝟎𝟎
