  • Aerobatic flying in a high-performance Cap 10 or Pitts Special plane
  • Loops, rolls and stall turns in mid flight
  • Breathtaking views of the earth and the sky
  • Take the controls with the expert supervision of your instructor
  • Just don't eat a big meal beforehand!

Nerves of steel and a stomach of solid rock? Then our ultimate aerobatic flying experience is for you. The experience starts with your feet firmly on the ground and a comprehensive briefing from your expert pilot. You'll chat through any specific requirements so your flight can be tailored to what you want (and how brave you're feeling). Then you'll climb aboard a Cap 10 or Pitts Special - both leading, high performance aerobatic planes. Hold on tight while your pilot puts the plane through its paces with a breathtaking and stomach-churning full aerobatics sequence (we mean it - for goodness sake don't eat a big meal beforehand!). Then if you want to have a go (and we're pretty sure that you will) your instructor will hand over the controls to you and you can experience the thrill of flying a plane yourself. Back on terra firma, collect your aerobatics certificate and make the most of your photo opportunities.

Locations:

Sywell, Northamptonshire; Peterborough, Cambridgeshire

 

More information

Participant Guidelines: Min age varies from 12 - 16. Maximum weight 18 stone. Minimum height 4'11''. If you fit into a standard car seat you should be comfortable in the cockpit. This experience is not suitable for pregnant women or anyone unable to climb into the open cockpit.
Weather: Aerobatic flying is very weather dependent. It is crucial that you call the venue for a weather check before setting out. If your flight is cancelled because of the weather, you'll be re-booked for an alternative date or time.
Duration: Chock-to-chock flight time is 25 - 30 minutes (depending on venue). Please allow an additional two to three hours on top of your flight time for the whole experience, including briefings, embarking, certificates and photo opportunities.
Numbers On Day: Only you and the pilot will be in the plane. The briefing session may be shared.
Spectators: Spectators are welcome. A camera or a pair of binoculars will come in handy - there will be some great photo opportunities with your plane. Pets are not permitted at airfields.
Dress Code: Dress comfortably and wear flat, soft soled shoes. Any special clothing and headsets will be provided. Bring sunblock and a hat in summer, and gloves in cold weather. Sunglasses are recommended all year round.
Availability: Weekdays or weekends at least three times per month from April to September, subject to weather conditions. Do allow several weeks advance booking notice, even earlier for summer weekend dates.
Other Info: The Cap 10 and the Pitts Special aircraft are two of the leading high-performance aerobatic flying machines, used by professional pilots in aerobatic competitions around the world. Don't eat a big meal before your flight, it might make you nauseous.
