Pooleys Discount Story added 17th November 2009 We are pleased to announce we have negotiated a discount for all Brooklands Flying Club members to use when purchasing items from Pooleys. You will receive a 5% discount off your order if you enter the discount code brooklands in the 'promotional code' box when finalising your order. Of course you can continue to buy from us direct at normal Pooleys prices, and save on postage costs by doing so.

Trial Flying Lesson Vouchers - now including Tiger Moth flights! Story added 22nd April 2009 Now available to buy online from Brooklands Flying School are 30 and 60 minute trial flying lesson vouchers. Take to the air in one of Brooklands' modern AT-3 training aircraft, a fantastic experience as a one-off, or first step into getting your private pilots licence! Your instructor will show you how an aeroplane flies, what the controls do, and hand control to you for a flight you won't forget. Depending on duration and distance you can see local landmarks or your own house from the air, and get a whole new perspective on things! Starting at just £85 for a half hour flight, a voucher makes a perfect Christmas gift - buy online here. We have also recently begun Tiger Moth trial flight experiences here at Sywell! Vouchers for 20, 30 and 40 minute flights can be purchased here. Don't miss this chance to experience aviation in authentic 1930s style with a flight in a Tiger Moth biplane. Nothing compares with flying over the beautiful English countryside in an original Tiger Moth biplane, from a grass aerodrome that has seen pilots taking to the air in Tiger Moths since 1932.
