Description

Strapped in to an ex-military T67 Slingsby Firefly, complete a series of breathtaking aerobatic manoeuvres. Begin with a flight and safety briefing from an ex-military instructor before getting kitted out in a flying suit. Then take to the air in the Slingsby, sitting alongside the instructor during a thrilling aerobatic flight demo. Take the controls to try flying the manoeuvres yourself.

Availability: Flights operate all year round, Monday to Saturday. Weather: Flying is dependent on the weather and it is crucial to call the venue the afternoon before the flight for a weather check. Duration: Expect to spend between two and three hours on-site, with around 35 minutes in the aeroplane and up to 30 minutes ‘hands on stick’ time. Actual flying time is at the instructor’s discretion. Numbers On Day: Share the aircraft with just the instructor. All briefings are shared. Spectators: There are cafe and bar facilities and up to two spectators are welcome (and can join in during the briefings). We strongly recommend someone else drives home; this is a high-adrenaline experience which can be very tiring. Dress Code: Wear flat shoes with good grip – trainers are ideal. Women – please wear trousers not a skirt. A flying suit is provided. Guidelines: Restrictions: Minimum age is 12, maximum height is 6’5”. Maximum weight is 17 stone. Over 71s must supply a doctor’s letter confirming suitability. Other Info:
