3 LITTLE STEPS
HAVE A TIF
TRIAL INTRODUCTORY FLIGHT
Start with a Trial Introductory Flight, commonly known as a TIF. This is the best way to experience the freedom of flight, and recreational flying.
What better way to experience the thrill of flight than to have your first flight with one of our qualified instructors in a two-seat microlight?
This flight allows you to experience first hand the freedom of microlight flying under the direct guidance of your instructor. The trial flight is extremely fun and will leave you speechless!
PILOT CERTIFICATE

Young or Old, you can go solo from the age of 15, and as long as you are medically fit enough to hold a Drivers License you can fly to any age.
Lessons are conducted from the Exmouth Light Aircraft Strip. Birds Eye View Ningaloo can safely guide you through an efficient training programme aimed at teaching you the knowledge and skills needed to gain your Pilot Certificate.
