There’s nothing quite like the feeling of flight – whether you’re flying over a patchwork of English fields in a vintage biplane, or defying gravity with an Introductory Indoor Skydiving experience – for some, being airborne is rather an addictive sensation.
If flying a plane or helicopter is your dream, we’ll help you achieve it – with introductory lessons at a number of locations around the UK. Or perhaps you’ve fallen in love with the idea of going up in a hot air balloon, and seeing the world from a bird’s-eye perspective. To enjoy the thrill of flying without leaving the ground, our flight simulator experiences are the perfect choice - used to train real pilots, you’ll believe you’re staring down the runway at Bangkok, Sao Paulo or one of over 10,000 other actual airports. For the truly fearless nothing beats the adrenaline surge that comes from leaping out of a plane with just a parachute for company, or get some moral support strapped to a dauntless instructor with a Tandem Skydive that leaves you free to admire the view.
