There has been little change in traditional
recreational flying for some time, partly because of the
diversified nature of flying activities but mainly because
of the practical difficulties associated with flying.It
is mainly thanks to the emergence of flying clubs and similar
establishments that it has become possible for the public
at large to learn how to fly and to practice flying at often
very reasonable prices.

In contrast to micro-lights,
which can only carry a maximum of two passengers and which
have very limited storage space, light aircraft are capable
of carrying a larger number of passengers (usually four)
and make it possible for a family to travel together.
Aerobatics in a light aircraft
is a most memorable experience and if you ever have the
opportunity you should definitely give it a try! The type
of gravity-defying stunts that can be carried out will amaze
you but, of course, should only ever be undertaken with
a suitably qualified pilot.
