“Just Brilliant!!”
The Spitfire Simulator is a fantastic experience - from the start learning to fly the aircraft down the Thames to taking on Heinkel’s and Dorniers over the channel, this experience does not disappoint!! Amanda guided me patiently through the experience in very friendly way - overall I would highly recommend this as a great day out!!
“I am now a Spitfire Pilot!!”
Very good experience! Staff are with you the whole time to ensure you have a great experience. I am already planning on a return visit to give the ME109 a try
