Freedom Wings days introduce disadvantaged or people with disabilities to general aviation and the wonders of flight. The day is supported by Cranfield Flying School, Bonus Aviation, The Douglas Bader Foundation, Pooleys Flight Equipment and Cranfield Airport.

Freedom Wings days introduces our guests to the workings of an aeroplane and the group will then visit hangars, the Fire and Rescue Service and the control tower. After a safety briefing there will be talk on ‘how aeroplanes work’. Lunch is served at about 1230 in a picnic style, and in the afternoon, all our guests, accompanied by an adult, will, weather permitting, enjoy the pleasure of a short half hour flight.

So the opportunity to take to the skies and literally discover a different perspective on the world is something that was hugely exciting to the youngsters. The day of flight enables our guest to see and experience things which they would never otherwise have the opportunity to, firing up their imaginations, exciting their curiosity and giving them a sense of life beyond their inner world.

The day will be organised as a fun day for everyone and it is hoped to see many smiles and give our guests an unforgettable experience.
