Fantastic experience.
After a short lesson on how to control the plane we had a sightseeing flight over London and then the bombers came into my sights, I did take a few down before taking a hit myself and then having to land in a field (which didn’t go well) all in all a fantastic insight into what our boys had to face. Thank you for the experience.

Spitfire Flight Simulator
A great experience overall. Paid extra £20 for an additional 30 minutes and decided on the VR goggles rather than the screen which I think was a wise choice. The hour went really quickly, the instructor was very informative and patient. Overall it was excellent value for money and I would recommend this to anyone wishing to have a taste of flying a combat mission in World War 2 over the skys of England.

Spitfire Simulator
Very enjoyable and VERY difficult to control at times but slightly disappointed with the fact that experience was limited to a moving screen in front of you. There was no use of the aircraft’s actual controls eg throttle, artificial horizon etc which give a truer representation of flying the aircraft On plus side, Amanda my instructor was BRILLIANT!! Overall enjoyable experience though

Good fun
Good experience, however 30 minutes not long enough when you can spend over half the time just getting set up, trained in how it works and little time left to actually have a go
