About the experience
Product ID: 13153
Step back in time and take to the skies from the historic Shoreham airport near Brighton and Hove! With this 30-minute flight experience, you can soar in an iconic Tiger Moth, one of the country's oldest licensed public service airfields, dating all the way back to 1910. You'll have the choice between flying a Tiger Moth or a Stampe, both classic vintage biplanes with rich histories. This Tiger Moth, in particular, holds a special place in aviation history. Delivered to the RAF in 1940, it served as a trainer and communications aircraft under the serial number NM137 before transitioning to civilian life in 1948. After undergoing a massive restoration process in 1991, this historic plane took to the skies once again in 1999, offering a unique opportunity to experience flying in a piece of living history. The atmosphere at Shoreham airport adds to the charm of this experience, with its art deco control tower and original features evoking a sense of nostalgia. Whether you're a history enthusiast or simply seeking an unforgettable adventure, this flight experience is sure to leave you with lasting memories.

I bought this Tiger Moth Flight for my husbands 70th birthday. He absolutely loved it. Everything was very well Organised with efficient friendly staff. He was thrilled that he was able to take the controls for most of the flight as well. I paid for a 60min experience but the whole thing lasted 90mins. Would def recommend - excellent!

The whole experience was excellent. Cedric let my husband take the controls a lot of the time. He was very informative and answered my husband’s many questions. The children and grandchildren could watch the take off behind the fence and then we walked to the cafe to see him come in.

I received a voucher for my birthday in April and booked directly with the flying school at Shoreham for a flight in May. My instructor (Cedric) welcomed me and my wife who'd come along to watch. It was a lovely day, and a privilege to be in the air over Sussex in a beautiful veteran Tiger Moth. A great experience!

Reviewed by: Trevor Evans
If you are interested in flying an old pioneering type aircraft then this is for you. It was a 70th birthday present for myself and I loved every minute. Good part was Cedric the pilot who was very accomodating and interesting. Bad part was the 'check-in ' receptionist and the lack of photo opportunities. But the good outweighed the bad. I would book longer next time.

Bought this for my Dad's 90th birthday. He had an amazing time and love every minute of it, remembering back to when he used to fly a Tiger Moth. Ian from Perry air was excellent and ensured Dad was OK every step of the way, and my Dad sang his praises. My daughter is now asking to have the same Tiger Moth flight for her 21st!!

An amazing experience, from help with making the booking for my flight, to the flight itself. Ian is a thorough professional and very patient with my efforts at flying the Tiger Moth myself. An experience to be repeated as soon as possible!

Flew the Tiger Moth with Perry Air at Shoreham. Really enjoyed it despite the wind, a great experience. Pilot Steve was excellent.

A fantastic day! A truly memorable experience with a very professional operation. I highly recommend this for novice flyers to experience the thrill of real flying on an open cockpit and a tailwheel. Also for older pilots who have only known enclosed cockpits and tricycle undercarriages a blast from the past!

A fantastic day! Perry Air made me most welcome and provided a very professional and enjoyable experience. I would highly recommend them for those wanting to experience flying for the first time or to past pilots wanting to relive the experience of flight.

A hugely enjoyable experience, presented by experts who are also very friendly. A wonderful aeroplane, all the fun of taking off from a grass strip, and very interesting coastal scenery to be enjoyed from low level. Best of all - of course - is the chance to take the controls. Highly recommended.

On arrival at the hangar we met a very polite and extremely experienced aviator who welcomed us warmly. Turned out he flew Lancaster's many years ago and was an absolute pleasure to talk to. The staff were all pilots who also did the flight line operations with great knowledge and dedication. The aircraft itself was a beautiful example maintained to a very high standard, one of the cleanest engines bays I have ever seen, and after a quick brief of what switch switches what the novices were strapped for a superb flight around Sussex and given control of the stick to perform some basic flying maneuvers. A truly wonderful experience made even more special by the unique and charming people who made it all possible.

This was for my dad's 70th birthday and something he always dreamed of doing but never thought would happen. Suffice to say the whole experience from the friendly people to the breathtaking flight over the South Downs and Brighton coast accompanied by the most perfect weather, proved to be one he will never forget. Thank you for making such a special day a very memorable one for him and his family.

A wonderful flight along the coast and up the Cuckmere valley - and I was able to 'have control' which took me back to my flying days. Exciting to be in a WW2 Tiger Moth, one of my best ever birthday presents. Camilla Pennant
