About the experience

With a full scale cockpit replica made from the original control stick also known as ‘spade grip’ and the original flying panel, it’s hard not to feel like you’re sitting in a real Spitfire. Included in the 30 minute session is a warm welcome from these passionate instructors, as well as a pre and post flight briefing to make this experience feel even more realistic. As well as the impressive original parts, this has the best features that modern simulators can offer with a 300 degree screen and 4k visuals.

Combining the best of the old and the new, this simulator experience is bound to be one you tell people about for years to come as you get a taste for what pilots went through in the skies over Britain throughout World War 2, all without leaving the ground.
