Stearman Aerobatic Joy Flight - 45 Minutes

Hang on for 45 minutes of knuckle numbing aerobatics in a classic Stearman military trainer. The Boeing Stearman was an American World War II Military Trainer used to train many of America’s greatest civil and military aviators. Be uplifted as the 220hp Continental radial engine is taken through its paces with you at the controls, before your instructor shows you the aerobatic capabilities of this magnificent flying machine.

Upon arrival at the hangar, you will meet your pilot and ground staff for the day and be shown around the vintage, open cockpit Stearman (with plenty of time for photos) where safety aspects will be explained. Then you will be helped to strap yourself into your seat. For the duration of the flight you'll be sitting in the front seat and your pilot will be seated behind you. When all is ready, you will be up and away on your aerobatic flight.

You have communication with your pilot for the duration of the flight and he will make the journey as enjoyable as possible for you, explaining the Manoeuvres and being as adventurous with loop the loops and rolls as you wish.

Alternatively you can choose to just sit and watch the world fly past while your pilot points out the areas of interest. On return to the Hangar you will be assisted from the aircraft by the ground crew where there is an opportunity for some more photos to compliment your amazing memories of your aerobatic flight.

You will be one-on-one with your pilot.

Spectators Welcome. All spectators are very welcome and will be escorted to an area on the tarmac where they can watch you take-off and land.

Price shown is for 1 person.
