How to fly a Trike / Microlight

I really wanted to learn to fly, and a microlight / trike seemed like the quickest, cheapest way to do it! This little video just shows my journey from a total novice through 20hrs of great instruction to my very first solo flight. I still have a lot to learn, but the feeling of that first solo was just amazing!

Well done. I would love to take a flight in one of these.

Awesome video! I was a licensed Private Pilot many years ago and miss the adventure! I am thinking of taking microlight flying lessons in the near future! There is a small flying club about 2.5 hours from my home. I am researching costs, requirements and scheduling now.

Very nice video ! I started this week with the theoretical part of the training, the practice will be in the spring. 🙂

That sound of the Microlight is music to my ears! I want to fly Solo on a Microlight one day!

Great job pilot! I wish excellent weathers to the flying... ;)

Great to see you instructing on YouTube Len. I wouldn't enjoy that runway in a crosswind!

lol sounds like 90s shooter music being played through blown speakers

[jeffdahl]

Because music sounds better than the airplane noise. Why do you think everyone has either ear plugs or communication .

Next emotion is taking the first passenger !
