Surprising Valentine's Day gifts
Valentine's Day can be difficult. How do you show you care for a loved one whilst avoiding the typical and predictable gifts?
Our Valentine's Day gift vouchers make for unusual yet exciting gifts and presents - and fun not just for the recipient, but also for the friends and family who can come and share the excitement of the trial flight.
We recommend Valentine's Day gift vouchers are pre-ordered to allow a personalised message to be added and for the voucher to be posted to you. (Mind you, we do operate an emergency service on the day itself - collection only, of course.) If so desired, mugs, t-shirts and other gift items are also available for sale through the office or on the flying day itself, as additional gift ideas.
Typical Valentine's Day gifts or the experience of a lifetime?
We suggest to contact our office on the day itself to verify that we are gliding that day. We are weather dependent - rain, high winds and limited visibility may restrict our activities. Besides which, a rough idea of the present and forecast weather conditions will also allow you to dress appropriately.
We warmly recommend all visitors wear warm and practical clothes (including sensible shoes) for the day of the flight. Those not flying are welcome to visit the launch point and see the flying operations first-hand.
Lastly, please bring your camera and/or video recorder to secure a memento of the day itself.
Perfect Valentine's Day presents
Our Valentine's Day gift voucher packages will deliver the experience of a lifetime. All the following will include a thorough safety briefing before the trial flight or flights. The lucky recipient of the voucher will have the opportunity to handle the controls under the tutelage of the instructor, or to just enjoy the view.
Take a single experience flight with our highly experienced instructors. The Glider will be towed to a height of 2000 feet and these flights can be taken either midweek or at weekends. - £97.00
Take a single experience flight with our highly experienced instructors. The Glider will be towed to a height of 3000 feet and these flights can be taken either midweek or at weekends. - £110.00
Take three Aerotow flights with one of our mid-week top professional instructors. You also receive a free copy of the ‘From Passenger to Pilot’ book on Gliding. Premier Experience days are available from Monday to Friday. - £205.00
Each of the above trial flights can be taken at weekends throughout the year, and on weekdays during our summer season which runs from April to September. These are gift ideas with a difference!
