Your chance to experience the high thrills and excitement of extreme flying as you loop, roll and stall turn in a high-performance aerobatic aircraft.
Imagine the sheer exhilaration of performing your own aerobatic sequence in a leading high-performance plane. Under the supervision of a CAA qualified instructor, your introduction to aerobatics will give you the opportunity to take over the controls and learn some of the basic maneuvers or you can opt to sit back and simply enjoy all the thrills as your pilot puts the plane through its paces.
No previous flight experience is required and you can choose from two leading aerobatic aircraft – the de Havilland Chipmunk or Slingsby Firefly. Both planes are used as military trainers and are capable of extreme maneuvers including loops, wingovers, barrel rolls, cuban 8's and stall turns.
