Flex wing or weight shift microlights as they are also known, are the original of the species.... So to speak!

Microlight flying was developed more 30 years ago using this concept, bringing affordable aviation to almost anyone who ever looked up towards the sky and dreamed of being able to own an aircraft and fly free as the birds over the countryside.

There is no better experience in the world than flying in a flex wing microlight on a nice summers evening, feeling at one with the air, with a view of the country side that money just can't buy.

By virtue of their design, they are extremely stable, very easy to control in the air, yet hugely manoeuvrable.

Flex wing microlights are truly the type of aircraft that can be stored at home and flown from any suitable field, needing relatively short distances to take off and land from.
