Cumbria Microlight Training Centre

CMT has been training students to fly for 17 years now and is based at Carlisle Airport, a Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) fully licenced operational airport. This type of training environment is ideal for learning to fly microlights. Unlike learning to fly microlights at many isolated airfields, you’ll quickly become familiar to flying in a licenced environment which will prove invaluable throughout your training syllabus and also once you have gained your licence.
CMT works hard to promote and maintain a relaxed training environment at it’s club house which is situated adjacent to the main control tower. However when it comes to flight training CMT are very serious. Safety is CMT’s number one priority in everything we do.
Our aircraft are operated and maintained to the highest standards possible.
CMT train on both flexwing and fixed wing aircraft.

CMT is based at Carlisle Airport which is easily accessible from the M6 motorway or A69 if approaching from the East. Carlisle Airport is an ideal location to learn to fly microlights. Our preferred training area is slightly West of Carlisle city over the Solway which offers quite stunning scenery all year round.

Not forgetting that we are also a stones throw away from the beautiful Lake District with all it’s unique scenery.

You’ll be training in an often busy flying environment, which in flying terms means you’ll be a safer, more confident and experienced pilot upon gaining your licence.
