EFG Flying School: what do users think?

Greg Gillies: Great flight, and all staff very professional. Mark is an amazing instructor, and has reignited my desire to get my PPL.

Tom Wright: I have thoroughly enjoyed my PPL journey and being a flying member at EFG! My instructor, Carmen, has been fantastic throughout my training and goes above and beyond with helping to schedule regular sessions in, as the school is very popular and availability can sometimes be difficult. An attractive and well maintained club fleet of PA28s compliments the school, which can be easily booked for hire using the online booking system. It is true that Biggin Hill is not the cheapest airport to learn to fly, however in my opinion the quality of training and the invaluable experience gained of flying at a busy controlled airport, so close to London and its complex airspace is unmatched elsewhere. Highly recommend flying at EFG!

James Allison: Absolutely fantastic experience, would recommend to anyone

David Lee: Thoroughly enjoyed my first flying lesson with Bill. What a wonderful experience. Thank you

Daniel Wayre: EFG provided a professional & welcoming service providing me with an introduction lesson. Alex, my instructor was knowledgeable and polite. 5 star service.

Peter Kelly: Very good efg all best Pete kelly

William Sandford: The folks at EFG do an absolutely stellar job. The standard of instruction is superb, and all the instructors are friendly, knowledgable and very supportive. Biggin Hill is an excellent aerodrome for training too - you get an experience of higher traffic levels and comprehensive air traffic control that doesn't exist at small training airports. Special thanks especially to Phil and Mark for getting me through my training without a hitch so far, and also to Anna and Becky who work tirelessly to make sure everything is going smoothly!

Ann Farrelly: Marvellous first flight excellent instructor & friendly staff Brilliant

Michael: Thank you for such an amazing experience!Anna on reception is friendly and welcoming and all round lovely!Mark is an awesome instructor! He was patient with my ropey taxiing and gave clear, concise instructions on how to fly the aircraft. He is friendly and professional, and was even kind enough to give us a demonstration of how the aircraft can really handle. His short final and landing was a joy to behold and something to aspire to!Many thanks again to all of the Team at EFG!

Luis John: I just want or love to say thus us not just an ordinary flying school this is my where my life and journey as a pilot is. The staff Anoop and Carmen have been angels on my shoulder. I am very ever more than thankfull that I've been included as part of their family since 2016. Carmen and Anoop Christian hasn't only just been my flying director and flying instructor. They have been part of my life and they really know my circumstances. But they never give up on me. I'll keep with them all my life and always keep contact. I'm so blessed with these pilots and instructor assistant and mentor . Thank you all for being there for me. So anyone wants to do flying. Please visit EFG biggin hill as this is an amazing environment.

Judy Van Selm: Very professional. My daughter loved her flying lesson. They were running a little behind schedule that's why I gave the 4 star but I'm probably being a bit harsh. We were offered a drink while we waited and didn’t really wait too long.

Redhill Aviation Flight Centre: what do users think?

Adrian Heeler: I had a great time on an acrobatic flight from Redhill with Mark . He talked through what he was doing and involved me as much as possible.

keith horley: I bought my son a training flight for his 15th birthday, this was fulfilled by Redhill Aviation and it was fantastic. I can't thank the team enough we had an amazing day. It was an hour flight and we were able to make it over to Brands Hatch on to the Thames and back via Hever Castle, and Chartwell house. Our instructor was so knowledgeable on what was around us, he could have been a tour guide! The quality of instruction was incredible everything was explained in a detailed but understandable manner. It was amazing to see my son go from never flying an aeroplane before, to being able to hold level flight on an instructed heading accurately. I'm hugely impressed and would love to book more lessons as time allows.

Sara Hart: What an experience. Can’t believe I lucked out on the weather! Great 60minute flying lesson.Feel surreal that I piloted the aeroplane on my own with supervision off courseMark from @redhillaviation was a great teacher, very supportive, friendly, knowledgeable and easy to talk to, a few giggles here and there, definitely recommend if you want a flying experience.

M J: Fantastic Instructors.

Derek Day: Friendly and informative

Mel Chacksfield: hard to find on first vist, but great experience had

Peter Watkins: I had a 1 Hour Extended Trial Flight lesson with these guys and it was absolutely amazing. The instructor, Simon, was very friendly, informative and made my experience very enjoyable. Will be booking another lesson in the near future.

Mike H: Amazing flying experience

Martin Leese: Great place

Charles Carfrae: I completed my CPL here in late 2022 and I had a great experience at the school. Firstly, my instructor Laurance was excellent; professional, friendly and very knowledgeable. His previous experience in flying and as ATC was invaluable, and his style is relaxed to let you make your own mistakes whilst learning without overloading you but giving you the essential info you need. When you need it he has excellent simple techniques or mnemonics of the various aspects of the CPL/flying in the SE that breaks it down into easy to manage chunks.The school itself was fantastic, a really welcoming vibe and knowledgable Ops staff made going there a pleasure and they are happy to help you with any questions you have. All the instructors are really friendly and knowledgeable. The prices I found to be some of the best in the South and the Arrow I flew was well maintained. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend this school for professional training.

aleks refrigeration: Extremely polite staff and top level pilot

Chris Lipscombe: An awesome flight experience day!

Henk Parmentier: An amazing experience!I had the 60 Minute Experience Flight and it was an amazing experience. Partly because it was such a nice day to fly but mainly due to the staff involved form James who greeted us at reception to Harry Grassom who was an amazing instructor who put me at ease during the flight and made the whole experience unforgettable!I highly recommend the Redhill Aviation Centre

G Larcher della Spalliera: My 1 hour aerobatic flying experience was amazing. Thanks to my great instructor Simon Canacott I learned the basics of handling the aircraft in the air while we were flying over the beautiful and picturesque Surrey countryside. The aerobatics maneuvers were breathtaking and super fun. Best time of my life! Looking forward for the next flight. Thank you

Matthew: Purchased my daughter a trial flying lesson as part of her 21st birthday present back in November. A busy year for her but finally went up yesterday, on a Bank Holiday Monday no less, and she had a wonderful time. Everybody we dealt with were friendly and her instructor proved superb. Will be recommending to everybody I know. A truly fantastic experience.

MAK Aviation Flight School: what do users think?

Zia Rehman: Lovely place ...and great support from Malcolm

Duncan Kamau: Very helpful people,

M M: Really great experience with the owner and the widely respected CFI Captain David Smith. He is rather like a 'Tom Cruise' character in his prime. Customer care is the schools aim and sets a high bar for others.

Chris Griffin: Positive:ProfessionalismBeen learning to fly with this company for a couple of months now, training for my PPL. Very impressed with the training and instructors - would highly recommend any day! David is a real credit to the team and has the patience of a saint. Thank you all!

Marcel Stepinski: This is a question in a trail lesson do you get a chance to take controls and am 14

karen allen: My son had a great day, the manager was very helpful.Make sure you call to confirm, as other reviews say, if the weather is bad, it will need to be changed to another day, but this is never an issue.Please do not book through Virgin Experience days, they are rude and charge a lot more, book directly.Adventure Experience 001 should be avoided too.My son flew over Amersham and Chesham as well completing circuits. The pilot was great fun too.I can highly recommend MAK Aviation, thanks guys.

Michael McAndrew: as a gift. I booked the experience long in advance, I went for early June,

Czeko Czekolada: Amazing experience and great fun!We bought 2 experiences so each of us was able to pilot the plane for a few moments. Our pilot, David, was very kind and professional. He made us feel safe and provided a lot of information about the plane and flying in general. It was very windy, so we waited around 1,5 hour for a decision whether the flights will take place, but it was totally worth it!Those who easily get sick should skip breakfast, especially if it's a windy day.
