Absolutely brilliant experience flying the Harvard with Aero Legends. Everyone was incredibly welcoming, really worked hard to tailor the flight to what I wanted and just provide a first class experience overall. The pilot, Phil, was so friendly and made me feel completely at ease with the flight. I still can’t quite believe I have experienced barrel rolls finally, but the icing on the cake was being allowed to take control of the aircraft in flight. I thought he’d gone mad, but Phil explained everything clearly before I took over, and made me feel completely confident with having a go. Safety was taken very seriously with plenty of time dedicated to talking through different safety elements in situ in the aircraft, and there was plenty of time given to take photos and things with the plane and pilot afterwards. I also met Charlie, the spitfire pilot, in the office afterwards and he spent time chatting to me about how the flight went. Overall, a truly memorable afternoon delivered by a group of genuinely lovely and experienced people who wanted to make sure you left feeling like you had experienced something truly special.

Purchased a Spitfire flight for my husband's significant birthday - was a fantastic experience for him and all of the family that came to watch. Was a great atmosphere watching all of the hustle and bustle of the airfield before, during and after his flight - wing walkers, sky divers and of course the legendary spitfire Elizabeth, Harvard etc. The team at Aero Legends were great - made you feel welcome and at ease. A truly once in a lifetime experience. Special thanks to Philip - pilot of the Harvard and the infamous Parky - pilot of the spitfire for giving us such a wonderful experience and memories. Truly, highly recommended.

The most unbelievable day of my life, hands down, from start to finish the lads at aero legends went above and beyond to make my experience the best day they could, flying the jet and getting to perform a few barrell rolls and loop the loops really made the day like a dream come true. Top marks and thanks to you all👌 👏
