  Had  a 40 minute Beachy Head Spitfire flight on 20 August 2026. The crew at Headcorn were very friendly and knowledgeable. Had a fantastic flight with Parky. We did a loop and victory roll over Beachy Head. Parky let me take control for part of the way back. He then took control and did a couple of victory rolls over the airfield before landing. One of the best experiences I have ever had and would highly recommend.

  Absolutely fabulous day the whole experience was handled very professionaly and all the staff were very helpful and friendly. I have always wanted to fly in a Spitfire and choosing the formation option with the Harvard was perfect. The Pilots Charlie and Patrick were true professionals and gave us a fantastic flight. My family and I thoroughly enjoyed the day, looking forward and saving hard for the next one ! 😎

  I recently flew the iconic Mach loop in the Strikemaster. It was fantastic! If you have a chance to do any formation flying I would highly recommend it! My thanks to Sean and all the ground crew for a fantastic adventure! Alan
