Fly a Spitfire Bewertungen 

If you are interested in warbirds then this just has to be done! I was lucky that this was my 70th birthday present and the Flyaspitfire team at Biggin Hill could not have been more helpful, considerate and professional in their approach. Great day and experience..... long may the opportunity to fly in these magnificent planes last.

The best experience ever (and this week was the third time!)

An amazing experience from start to finish for my dad who opted for the White Cliffs of Dover flight .
From the first phone call to book the flight , the welcoming arrival , the flight itself and the hanger tour were all 5* . We really couldn’t fault anything at all ! Thank you to each and everyone of you involved in making the experience so amazing !

I flew with these guys on Sunday 12 June, and can say they are the friendliest bunch of people who run an excellent professional service that made me and my family delighted with the experience. Oh yes the flight, who could be anything other than ecstatic flying in a Spitfire with an ex Red Arrows and BBMF pilot. The victory roll over the Battle of Britain memorial was the poignant high light. No wonder I can’t stop smiling.

This was a trip for my husbands 60th b'day. He had an absolutely fabulous experience. All the staff were really friendly and went out of their way to make it special. The actual flight was something he will never forget - we would highly recommend it.

We visited the team at Biggin Hill on Saturday where my husband flew in a spitfire for his birthday present. From the minute we arrived on site every member of the team were so incredibly friendly and helpful. They kept us updated throughout the day and advised us on various services they offered. I had two elderly spectators with us who both told me they will remember this day for the rest of their lives. As my Dad told me "no where else in the world will you see a spitfire that close and you will never tire of that sound!" The hangar was immaculate, the tour was interesting and the chaser plane experience was phenomenal. We cannot thank everyone involved enough for such a superb day.

I decided that for my 70th birthday I wanted to fly in a Spitfire. The experience was fantastic from start to finish. Every member of staff was amazing. They were all very pleasant welcoming and helpful and nothing was too much trouble. The flight itself was the experience of a lifetime and the pilot made me feel completely at ease. Overall a truly amazing day.

Fantastic day doing a bucket list flight in an absolutely iconic WW2 fighter plane.
Booking & changing flight dates due to COVID restrictions & family illness was no problem, so instead of being 60 for my flight I was 62 ! From the moment of my arrival I was well looked after - safety briefings, historic hangar tour & arranging meetings with friends & relatives were all handled with care to ensure that your experience was as hoped for. Obviously this isn’t a cheap experience, but it was very clear that all safety procedures & aircraft servicing were carried out to the highest level to ensure passenger safety. Plus the cost of the flights goes towards the maintenance of these amazing aircraft so that we can enjoy them for years to come. My pilot Barry was determined that my experience was as enjoyable as possible & tailored to my individual expectations.
There is no pressure to make the flight if you’re in any way unsure of or worried by the risks involved in flying in such an old aircraft.
Nothing would have stopped me flying, but the staff at Biggin Hill ensured that my day was one of the most memorable experiences of my life so far - thanks to everyone !

Just brilliant! The team were very welcoming and really looked after all of the family throughout the visit.

The flight was a dream come true, especially with a couple of barrel rolls towards the end. It’s well worth friends and family taking the trail plane up if the budget allows, the experience is even better shared, plus film footage really completes it. I might have watched it more than once already!

Also loved the guided tour of the museum, a magnificent collection of wartime relics to end the visit. A traditional tin mug of ‘Mess’ tea would have been a lovely extra to the day, plus I would have bought one if in the gift shop! Nice touch of the gift pack of Spitfire mementos as we left. Thanks so much folks! ✌️

Awesome!!.... Childhood ambition realised on my 60th birthday. The Hanger Museum tour, the flight itself, the entire team, and especially Amanda, Ray and Jez made the whole day an amazing and unforgettable experience. I was genuinely moved and emotional for the flight experience!

That was one of the greatest flying experience I have ever had.
The only flying experience that was ever better, was on the day when flew solo.
Thumbs up for you, and the staff at Biggin Hill👍👍👍👍😊😊😊😊😊

Was everything expected and more
A totally awesome experience
Words cannot justify the unique feeling

Absolutely fantastic experience from start to finish. Purchased as a surprise birthday gift for hubby who has wanted to fly in a spitfire all his life. All staff were friendly enthusiastic and knowledgeable. Thoroughly reccomend.

Fabulous place to visit and see the craftsmanship that goes into restoring WW2 aircraft. If you are thinking of booking a flight, stop hesitating and just do it for the experience of a lifetime! Book the Airvan as well for amazing air to air photo opportunities; real close in formation flying - fantastic. Really skilled pilots, very helpful knowledgeable team and thoroughly recommended.

A fantastic experience for a Spitfire fan, the children loved going up in the Airvan to see their dad flying the spitfire too!

Highly recommend.

The friendliest, efficient, happy, relaxed team that run Fly a Spitfire, made me feel part of a family.
Warm and welcoming. The whole day was so exciting and the flight " The biggest Adrenalin Rush ever "

Look if flying a spitfire isn't one of the most incredible experiences you can do in life then Check your pulse.
And to make it even better the staff, from pilots to groundstaff and mangers here are awesome

The whole experience was wonderful flying in a Spitfire.
The ground crew all very helpful and the pilot was very helpful and informative about the flight.
This is something I will remember for ever flying around Kent in a Spitfire.

I had a wonderful day with very friendly ground crew and pilots from meet and greet, hangar tour and a fantastic flight! Apart from my family flying alongside in the air van and the barrel roll, the absolute best part was taking the controls to manoeuvre the aircraft and fly it for several minutes!! Now I just want to do it all again…

The welcome we received on arrival was brilliant, staff were extremely helpful and informative.
The museum tour was brilliant and the tour guide was very knowledgeable
The flight in the Spitfire was an experience not to be missed exceptional and unbelievable. Peter the Commander/pilot was informative all through the flight and let me take control of the plane and even do a victory roll.
An experience that I cannot put into words. My head is still in the clouds - excuse the pun
Flying over the cliffs of Dover was a sight to behold
