A lovely way to celebrate the life of your loved one; scatter their ashes over the beautiful Cambridgeshire fields and countryside in a unique and dignified manner. Cambridge Aero Club aerial Ash Scattering service was created to provide clients with the opportunity to celebrate a friend or family member’s life in a memorable way.
At the cost of £250, three passengers plus pilot will fly in a C182, four-seater aircraft outfitted with a unique device designed to carry and release ashes.
