Herlies: the ideal starting point for microlight flying

Depart from Herlies airfield and enjoy the lush green landscapes of the Nord region. You'll cover between 40 and 50 km, depending on the option you choose, around the Weppes plain, with the Monts des Flandres as a backdrop.

Course of the flight :

• Welcome at the airfield: presentation of the microlight's characteristics and safety rules to be observed.
• Boarding & take-off: 20 to 30-minute flight over the Nord region.
• Introduction to the basics of piloting with explanations given by a qualified instructor communicating with you via intercom.
• Smooth landing and debriefing with the pilot.

A tilting microlight flight is the ideal way to get away from it all, close to home or on vacation. It's also the ideal gift for a loved one.
