You will be flown by one of our wing-walking display pilots, who will take you to the skies on the top wing of one of their Boeing Stearman biplanes. You will experience an exhilarating series of flypasts, zoom climbs, steep dives and banks in front of the family and friends you bring along on the day.

“Back in 2018 I started suffering from anxiety and depression but what really saw me through was my passion for aviation.
Taking off on your first flight is an exhilarating moment and the escapism that you feel from anything that's going on back on the ground is immense.”
Thanks to all our fantastic fundraisers and supporters he is now training for his PPL and has his sights set on becoming a commercial pilot after he completes college.
