About the experience
Calling all military aviation enthusiasts! Prepare to be transported back in time with our unforgettable Wing to Wing Hurricane and Harvard flight experience. Bursting with nostalgia and brimming with action, this adventure is tailor-made for aficionados like you. Picture this: the iconic Harvard and Hurricane soaring side by side, their wings in perfect alignment, creating a mesmerising sight that will leave you breathless. Feel the adrenaline rush as these legendary warbirds take to the skies, chasing irreplaceable moments of historical action. Originally serving in the Royal Canadian Air Force's No. 6 Service Flying Training School during World War II, our Harvard, a former Spitfire built by Noorduyn Aviation in 1942, was a classroom for the pilots, having trained several hundred thousand over 25 years, before retiring in Sweden post-war. Meanwhile, our Hurricane, the illustrious Hawker R4118, stands as a living testament to the Battle of Britain, the only airworthy Hurricane to have graced those historic skies. Renowned as one of the most significant fighter aircraft to survive from World War II, it boasts a legacy unmatched by any other. These legendary aircraft, lovingly restored to their former glory, now await your presence in their authentic liveries, ready to take you on a journey through time and aviation history. Don't miss the chance to experience the thrill and honour of flying alongside these iconic warbirds.
