Overview

An incredible flying lesson where you’ll learn actual amazing techniques used by fighter pilots! Learn manoeuvres like the derry turn, aileron loop, Cuban 8, stall turn, and barrel roll from a genuine ex-military instructor and fly a T67 Firefly - the classic training plane used to train air force pilots since the 60’s. You’ll recall every classic war movie you’ve seen as you experience the exhilarating feeling of flying like a fighter pilot for yourself. On arrival you’ll be provided with a military flying suit, before a full safety briefing from your instructor, a former military trainer. You’ll then take to the cockpit and take off, mastering turning, ascents and descents. The instructor will demonstrate a range of exciting acrobatic manoeuvres, before handing the controls back to you so you can see what you’re made of! Your instructor will finally guide you to fly the plane back to base, and you’ll finish with a debrief and receive a certificate to commemorate this once-in-a-lifetime experience!

Fly like a Fighter pilot
28 August 2014
The Ultimate High team were brilliant, friendly, welcoming and professional, very good briefing before the flight. The flight was hampered a bit by bad weather, not there fault, and the pilot did his best to do all the aerobatics I was told to expect. All in all, a very nice experience. Thank you Ultimate High.

The flight was great . the pilot was 1st class. Had great faith in me when i had the controls. Letting me land the plane. What an experience. The G. force feeling was not so good, but it did not spoil the great day. I would do it again. John.

Superb instructor. Lot of time in-flight. Amazing to have the controls doing most excellent aerobatics not just being a passenger but actually doing the manouevres. Unforgettable experience and truly an ultimate high. May do it again as nothing quite like it. Even beats skydiving. Thankyou.
