40 minute Fly With a Spitfire Experience

Overview

Get up close to a Spitfire on ground and in flight as it appears as your wingman, and take an aerial tour of the Eyebrook Reservoir, practice site for the Dambuster raids, with this Fly Alongside a Spitfire - Dam Busters Tour.

Produced in greater numbers than any other British aircraft, the Spitfire is a beacon of Britain’s aerial supremacy before, during and after the Second World War. You’ll get to see why from a seat on board a multi-seat, certified passenger aeroplane or helicopter as a Spitfire flies within smiling distance of your window. As you cruise along you’ll be able to take in breathtaking views of the Eyebrook Reservoir and the surrounding countryside, while the Spitfire manoeuvres around your plane with characteristic ease. Keep your camera to hand for some amazing air to air snaps!

Fancy an even closer view? Your experience includes an essential Ground Viewing with the Spitfire.
