30 Minute Tiger Moth Biplane Flight - Red Letter Days
£245.00
Product Information
Chocks away old boy! Toodle-pip! Aviation was once about freedom and adventure (as well as fantastic sheepskin jackets and great goggles). And with this experience you'll recreate the pure pleasure of vintage flight. After a short pre-flight briefing, don a Biggles-style flying jacket before climbing into the cockpit of a vintage De Havilland Tiger Moth or 1930s Stampe SV4. The Tiger Moth is the quintessential English biplane, with the Stampe being the Belgian equivalent and all models have been lovingly restored. Feel the rush of the wind from the open cockpit and enjoy sectacular views as your pilot puts the plane through a series of exciting manoeuvres (subject to weather conditions and at the pilot's discretion). You'll also have the opportunity to take the controls yourself and discover the sensation that has made generations of flyers fall in love with these lively little planes. Back on terra firma, some venues even include a flight certificate for you to take home.

Helicopter Flight - Red Letter Days
£195.00
Product Information
Plane travel has become pretty commonplace - and even a bit of chore, with scrums for seats on low-cost airlines and interminable queues and checks. But a helicopter flight is still something that very few people have tried - pretty much reserved for royalty and the super-rich. With this experience you'll join this select club (well, you'll fly in a helicopter, we can't make you a millionaire). After a briefing on flying techniques and safety, climb aboard a dual-controlled training helicopter, usually a Robinson R22. You'll be accompanied by an expert pilot, so you'll be in safe hands. The vertical take-off is astounding, and the thrills will continue as your pilot shows you how the chopper can move forward, backward, sideways or simply hover motionless in the air. Frankly, it makes planes seem run of the mill! At the pilot's discretion, you'll have the chance to take the controls, and feel for yourself the adrenaline rush of manoeuvring these amazing craft.

Extended Microlight Flying - Red Letter Days
£145.00
Product Information
The planes that most of us travel in are so big you hardly even know that you're in the air. Well, things couldn't be more different flying in a microlight. In fact a trip on one of these nippy, lightweight little flying machines is about as close as you can get to being a bird. It's an exhilarating experience - and one which needs strong nerves and a real head for heights! You'll start off with a short briefing from your instructor, before hopping into your microlight. There are two types of microlight: 'flex wing', based on the frame of a hang glider; or 'fixed wing', which is similar to a conventional light aircraft. They all have dual controls, so you're in safe hands at all times. You'll be impressed by the speed and manoeuvrability of this little craft and your instructor will encourage you to have a go at the controls yourself (we don't reckon you'll need much encouragement). If you get a taste for it, your flying time can count towards a microlight Private Pilot's Licence.
