Teen Aerobatics Experience - £235
You are welcomed at the airfield, kitted out in flying suits with gloves, name badges and military bone-domes. Then you’ll get to know your aerobatic plane with a safety briefing at the aircraft, including familiarisation with the cockpit controls. The pre-flight briefing lasts 45 minutes and includes safety and parachute briefing, how to fly the aircraft, aerobatic techniques and an introduction to air combat manoeuvres. You will then meet your instructor pilot to discuss your flight preferences before strapping on your parachute, taxiing down the runway and taking to the skies! You will sit with your pilot instructor in a dual-control aircraft. During your 35 minutes (25 minutes airborne) in the aerobatic plane you will learn the following techniques:
- Take-off and `get to know´ the effects of the aircraft's controls
- Turning, climbing and descending
- Aerobatics introduction - as mild or wild as you'd like!
- Student `hands on stick´ session (e.g. loop, aileron roll etc)
- Return to Base
After disembarking the aircraft you will receive a debrief from the instructor pilot, and your experience is completed with your flight certificate being signed. Now you can catch your breath!
Group Size: Your aerobatic flight will be just you and the pilot.
You will have approximately 2 to 3 hours at the venue with approximately 35 minutes in aircraft.

Feedback
I had a few problems with my booking that got quite complicated. I dealt with a lady called Kerry Cable and I must say I haven't had such good customer service in a long time. She was very fast to reply to my queries, understanding, apologetic and dealt with the problems quickly and efficiently. You have a great employee there who I'm sure does wonders for your reputation whenever she deals with your customers! Thanks Kerry!
