Details for the Wacky Wabbit Harvard Flights in Peterborough

Product ID: 13933

Take to the skies aboard the legendary Wacky Wabbit Harvard and experience the thrill of flying in one of the UK's most distinctive warbirds. With vouchers available for an exciting 20-minute flight, this is your chance to enjoy an unforgettable journey in a truly remarkable aircraft. Built as a T-6J Harvard in 1953 by the Canadian Car & Foundry Company, this aircraft was commissioned by the United States Air Force and later sent to Italy as part of the post-war effort to help rebuild European air forces. In 2015, the Harvard's current owners undertook a meticulous restoration, returning the aircraft to prime flying condition. While searching for the perfect identity to match its striking RAF Desert Air Force-inspired colour scheme, they discovered a vintage carrot-eating rabbit emblem used by the British Flying Training School in Florida during the 1940s. Inspired by this piece of aviation history, Wacky Wabbit was born. Today, this unique warbird is a familiar sight in UK skies, captivating aviation enthusiasts with its distinctive nose art, colourful livery and rich heritage. Supported by the passionate pilots, engineers and ground crew of Team Wabbit, the aircraft is maintained to the highest standards and continues to delight passengers on every flight. Book your 20-minute Wacky Wabbit Harvard flight and experience the sights, sounds and excitement of this iconic warbird for yourself.

A Harvard had been on my bucket list for a very long time, but Wacky Wabbit was well worth the wait The aircrafts ground crew and pilot made sure that everything ran very smoothly on the day and their communication was excellent when inclement weather forced a couple of hours delay. As if the flight itself wasnt memorable enough, flying from Fowlmere, a highly significant and historic airfield in its own right was an added bonus. Wacky Wabbit is very highly recommended, as is the whole Into The Blue operation, which has been excellent throughout.

What a fantastic experience flying in the Harvard T6 doing Battle of Britain manoeuvres and experienced G4 it was a real experience and to understand what the brave men went through hats off to them the pilot was great explaining everything throughout and didnt do anything you were uncomfortable with would highly recommend this experience.

Bought this for my husband as a celebration for our 40th wedding anniversary. T6 kindly agreed to change our original date due to my illness. The weather in the day was 34degrees and beautiful. My husband upgraded to the Battle of Britain along with a video of him in the plane. All the crew were so polite and helpful explaining ever that was about to happen adding to the anticipation of the flight. Husband was up for 20 minutes and said us was absolutely brilliant Did a full overhead roll and other manoeuvres all captured. It was a long journey from Scotland but it was worth every mile.
