What precautions do you take for crossing the sea in case of engine failure?

That was brilliant. I flew to St Marys by helicopter 10 years ago, but that looks alot more fun. I loved the Isles. As you say like the Caribbean. I've lost too much eyesight to fly properly. The one joy of my life.

Enjoyable but watched with the sound off!

What a joy this was, thanks! Can't help hoping the tourist office over there is called the Ministry of Scilly Walks ;)

Well, would you just look at the colour of that water, just beautiful! Thanks for posting 👍

new subscriber here hello from Ausralia

Beautiful location and amazing video, thanks for sharing. You should come over to the Isle of Wight sometime.

Great How To on how to get to the Scillies! What I liked was the understated narration, leaving the fab images to speak for themselves....well done; one of the best short-flight vids on YT.👌💪

Do you wear an immersion suit for flights over water?

That was visually stunning 👍

I enjoyed the video. But it would've been 10x better if you had pointed out, maybe with graphics, the different towns, villages and landmarks. Such a shame

Lovely flight with some stunning views. Can anyone name the beach down and to the left at the 3:56 mark please??

grear video. Amazing views.❤

Awesome.... thank you. :)

Great video's.. I would love to do this hobby. How much does one cost. Do you need a licence to fly one. Awsome. Dean 🇬🇧

Blimey that thing looks about as stable as Meghan Markle at a family picnic

Wow, amazing to see 😍... thanks for filming it 👌. I had a gorgeous week in the Isles of Scilly about 20 years ago and flew by helicopter... It was as clear and beautiful as your flight... as you say.. Could be anywhere in the Caribbean. We've also been to the Maldives and I think the Isles of Scilly are as beautiful 💖🙏🏖️

Wow looks like the Maldives from the beaches and clear water. just kidding, but looks stunning. Who would've thought we have that in the channel close to the Atlantic

I have some doubts as to wether this real or a flight simulator. I think the hands give it away and the lack of other humans.

Great video - very enjoyable. Thanks for going to the trouble 👍

Wow you are the luckiest man alive to be able to do this simply breathtaking !!

Just wondering what precautions you have to take for that distance over water, is it just height for glide distance and hope? Sorry if it’s a dumb question

So close to death at every moment. One big gust of wind... and it's sayonara.

Shit, we've ruined our country with a sea of farms, no natural landscape left at all, so sad.

What is the crossing time?

I really enjoyed your video. I would love to see a full length, unedited version. I like trying to identify the towns and villages from above

That is fantastic! Loved the flight, and have subscribed. I've wanted to visit the Scilly Isles, and now I have, sort of! I wish I were healthy enough to do this kind of thing. I fly a drone to get footage and photos for my channel, and so see the ground from up to 400 ft overhead, but with a microlight I could get me lots of even better footage. I've always wanted to fly up close and personal to the clouds.

Wow, just wow!

How are you finding the parts and servicing since the Indian company took over P & M? (I used to work for them (P & M) before they went into receivership!) Also, are you wearing a goon suit and have any extra safety equipment flying over water?

Crazy guy well done it was beautiful

I enjoyed that very much, thanks. 😊 Subbed.

It really doesn’t need the music. Far too many videos on RUclips with it when all we want is the ambience of the background or the sounds of whatever is happening in the video.

Great video, I do plan to visit the Scillys soon

Isles of Scilly!!never the Scilly isles!!

Love the musical accompaniment

I was enjoying this, but then the music cut in. What’s wrong with wind and engine noise?!

Congratulations on a brilliant video - I was almost emotional watching it, you forgot what a beautiful place this country is. I’d never seen the Scilla isles before, your right, could have been the Caribbean. That craft is amazing, I’m probably to old to learn it all now, but a fantastic way really sense the skies 👏👏👏

It's marvellous that people like you do the things you do, and show us what we would otherwise never see. More power to your elbow.

Lovely video, what speed does this thing do normally? I'd love to learn to fly one of these. Looks so peaceful.

Lovely. I'm envious.

Beautiful Dave. A random recommended video, and wow, fantastic. My old home at cardinham airfield, now in west Cornwall, wonderful to see our fantastic county from such a perspective. Lovely music too. Regards Paddy.

Great video, I dream of becoming a microlight pilot one day soonish, my only experience being with paragliding at club pilot level. I was under the impression that microlights couldn't fly over open water, so I was surprised by this flight, is it possible to do that after all? With thanks to whoever answers!

Maybe it is a good idea to put some stats at the end of your video like: flighttime, distance, etc. Might make an already interesting video even more interesting.

Beautiful views 👍 Thank you

How fast can they go?

The music is beautiful, makes me want to fly a microlight through my dreams

This is brilliant. What a fantastic video. I know Cornwall well many a holiday there as a child growing up in '70s and '80s but our family never visited the Scilly Isles. But to see this journey via microlight is just the best. My dad flew gliders and light aircraft and he would have loved this footage. What a way to travel, happy flying.

Awesome. Free as a bird indeed

Stunning, thank you. Actually flying there this Friday , cannot wait .

Magic,Enchanting and Awesome 👏👍👌
