About Microlights

From simple beginnings, the microlight has developed into a state of the art flying machine, capable of flying long distances at 100mph or more! In 2001 Britain's Brian Milton successfully completed the first round the world expedition, showing just how reliable and airworthy these machines have become. They are also capable of reaching dizzying heights. In 2005 a microlight flew over the top of Everest, which demonstrates just how far things have developed.

Despite their light appearance, modern microlight aircraft are incredibly strong and have one of the best safety records in leisure aviation. With their large, high-lift wings, microlights simply glide safely to earth in the event of engine malfunction - these days, with high  performance aircraft engines, a very rare occurence!
