20 Minute Tiger Moth Flight
Overview
Climb into the open cockpit of a vintage De Havilland Tiger Moth for a classic aerial adventure. Don a Biggles-style flight jacket and board the Tiger Moth after a pre-flight safety briefing from an experienced pilot. Once at altitude, enjoy an incredible bird's-eye perspective of the landscape below as the pilot completes a series of adrenaline-pumping aerobatic manoeuvres (subject to weather conditions and at the pilot's discretion). During the session, get a chance to take over the controls and experience the breathtaking sensation of piloting such an amazing aircraft first-hand. This experience also includes entry to the IWM Duxford (and half price entry for any guests).
