The anticipation will be palpable when you climb into the luxury helicopter. As you take off, all eyes will be looking for the Supermarine Spitfire. As the 374mph Mk VB Spitfire comes into your sights, it's cameras at the ready, as you enjoy a real bird's eye view of this most sublime of military warbirds, flying directly alongside Spitfire BM597 from the Historic Aircraft Collection.

Your Spitfire flying experience continues as BM597 breaks off to perform a series of high-speed aerobatics, proving just how agile this legendary piston-engined fighter plane is. Your air to air display will last around 15 minutes. That's 15 minutes to fly with a genuine Castle Bromwich-built Spitfire that saw many years of active service on air raids and battles during World War 2. This is a truly unique chance to take part in a Spitfire flying experience that will touch the hearts of any wartime aviation fan.


This World War 2 Spitfire experience allows you to witness a specially choreographed airborne Spitfire display from the comfort of an executive Helicopter. As well as flying straight and level alongside you, the Spitfire will also perform breathtaking high speed aerobatics and flypasts. The helicopter flight lasts approximately 20 minutes with a 15 minute synchronised display from the Spitfire. You'll enjoy a unique vantage point to capture spectacular views and photographs of the aircraft in flight. A mounted signed photograph will be presented to each guest as a reminder of their experience.

You may be forming part of a group of 6 passengers. You may be able to reserve the front seat next to the pilot for an additional fee, payable on site.
