I'm learning to fly microlight aircraft at Kemble Flying Club based at Cotswold Airport. Many thanks to David Young, my instructor - book yourself a lesson today!

I've been fascinated with aviation since I was a young lad...even flying model planes and had been bought some PPL lessons in the past, but learning to fly was far too costly. Until I heard about an NPPL licence - flying Microlights are far more affordable.
Do leave a comment! Anything you'd like to see next time?

Lovely job Ben. Great idea recording your instructor watching the footage too and thanks for the shout out. 👍

[@BenAtkinsonVideos]

Rory On Air - cheers mate! A pleasure...hope you managed to get up recently!

[@RoryOnAir]

Sadly not for a few weeks. The weather has been appalling at weekends. I hope it improves soon!

[@theflyingbutcher1798]

Your making it look easy Ben, excellent job and another very good video.

[@BenAtkinsonVideos]

Byron in the clouds - thanks very much Byron!

[@daipower1]

Great video

[@jersher6954]

Nice landings!

[@KevinWolters]

Haha, again the relaxing narrating voice of David “Attenborough” Young, talking us through the final stages approaching the runway. Great one Ben! Nice landings! Keep up the good work. Cheers!

[@BenAtkinsonVideos]

Kevin Wolters - cheers for following the videos mate! Haha. Voice like butter. Cheers

[@Planehazza]

Looking good, Ben!

[@jedwig61]

I’m only a sofa pilot at the moment but I know a nice landing, or 3, when I see one.

[@BenAtkinsonVideos]

Jed Wigmore - thanks Jed! You must try it sometime ....

[@jedwig61]

Ben Atkinson I will, just need to arrange first lesson but weather & work are getting in the way :(

[@JoeRichardson02]

another great video - fantastic to see you progressing, good work!

[@BenAtkinsonVideos]

Joe Richardson - thanks for watching the videos and commenting joe!

[@JodelFlyer]

Nice video Ben. I have come to you from the link made by Rory and now subbed. He and I have been making flying videos for some time now but I have to say that I have never seen (or rather, heard) the instructor comments used like this. Great idea!

[@BenAtkinsonVideos]

Jodel Flyer - heeey! Thanks for subscribing. I’m a fan of your channel, so appreciate it!

[@JodelFlyer]

Looking forward to your next one. Keep up the good work.

[@JUSTYH82]

I'm really starting to enjoy these more and more. Great landing and I love the commentary Ben . :-) As we say over here, "Keep her lit" lol

[@BenAtkinsonVideos]

JP Hughes - haha. Will do! Cheers mate

[@davidturner4487]

Great job Ben i saw your plane being built ...come to Hamilton Fm some time, great videos whilst our strip is waterlogged!

[@BenAtkinsonVideos]

David Turner - fascinating! Yes I must come by.

[@anthonycampbell7048]

Enjoying your videos Ben. You are not too far away from your GST! You should come over to us at the Ulster Flying Club, Newtownards, N Ireland for your first cross channel experience :) Can you tell me what Camera you are using as I'm looking for a similar camera thats small enough for head mount. Many thanks, Anthony.

[@BenAtkinsonVideos]

Thanks for commenting Anthony! Quite a bit more to do yet. My next video proves I'm certainly not just ready haha! Amazing. I'd be well up for that once I've some experience under my belt. I'm actually using a YI 1080p action camera. As I'm only using KZbin for my video platform, 1080p is the standard that most people watch videos in - a 5th of the price too. Reliable so far! Two for £100 isn't too bad. I plan on doing a video on the kit I use in the near future. Thanks again for the comment...good luck with your videos. Ben

[@Planehazza]

Can you enlighten me, Ben? What is TWAS FUN? I can guess what some of them stand for, but I've not seen that one before.

[@BenAtkinsonVideos]

Hi Harry - it's a downwind check my instructor has taught me. Standing for TRIM, WIND, ALL CLEAR, SECURITY, FUEL, UNDERCARRIAGE, NOTE - temp and gauges. You'll notice me running thru this procedure on downwind.
