Experience thrilling aerobatic flights at Hawarden Aerodrome, located near Chester! Climb into a Slingsby Firefly for an adventure filled with loops and rolls at this famous airport on the border of Wales and Cheshire. You may know Hawarden as Chester Airport or Broughton, home to Airbus wing assembly in the UK. The impressive Beluga XL frequently visits, which is why the runway stretches a remarkable 2043 metres! With excellent facilities, including ATC, ground handling, and the fantastic Chock’s Away café, Hawarden is an ideal departure point for your flight. Coupled with the fact that you’ll be enjoying an aerobatic adventure, excitement is guaranteed from start to finish. The Slingsby Firefly T67M is an excellent option for aerobatic flights at Hawarden.

Once airborne and in the training zone, the thrills will begin. You can experience loops, spins, and more; feel free to request a manoeuvre if you desire! At some point during the experience, you will be invited to take the controls of the Firefly, and with your instructor guiding you, you’ll be flying this agile aerobatic training aircraft. Conveniently located near Chester and North Wales, enriched with aviation manufacturing history and equipped with top-tier facilities, aerobatic experiences from Hawarden (Chester) Airport make for fantastic gifts that are sure to excite aviation enthusiasts!
