  • Step into a 120mph wind tunnel for an incredible 10 minute session of free flight each
  • Master the basic skills of free flight with your instructor's help
  • Much more free flight time than skydiving - and no need to jump out of a plane!
  • Take home a DVD of you flying

Wind tunnels have been used for years to test the aerodynamics of cars. Then some bright spark came up with the idea of flipping one upright and jumping into the airflow - and body flying was born. The wind tunnel is a 120mph wall of air, easily strong enough to support your weight, so that you can experience freefall without the need to jump out of a plane. You'll start off with a safety briefing from your instructor before being kitted out with your specialist flight suit. Then step into the wind tunnel with your instructor, where you'll be lifted into the air for an incredible 10 minute body flying session. As a comparison, during a skydive from 10,000 feet, you would experience around 30 seconds of freefall. If you're lucky, your instructor will jump on the flow and show you some astonishing freefall acrobatics. Your flying session will end with a debrief, and you'll both get an e-photo of your experience, plus a DVD of your flight to take home.

Location:

Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire
