It's time to go spinning in the skies when you fly aerobatics at Coventry Airport! This is your chance to experience what it's like to fly some fine aerial tricks over the midlands with a fully licensed pilot instructor by your side
- it'll take your breathe away for sure! Coventry is a great place to learn aerobatics as it's a proper airport with business jets & cargo flights. It boasts all the facilities (including an impressive tarmac runway) without all the airspace restrictions or the hustle & bustle of a busy passenger terminal. That means you have all the sky to play with. The aeroplane you'll be going up in is a funky little Avions Pierre Robin R2160. French designed & built these aircraft are quite rare in the UK but they are fully aerobatic to +6 & -3g which is perfectly adequate to give the novice trickster a thrill. When you walk out to the plane you'll have to admit the dark blue & gold livery is rather swish & highly appropriate for whizzing over the Coventry countryside pulling some moves. Climbing into the cockpit (which can only be described as 'snug'!) you'll sit side by side with your instructor. In front of each of you there's a stick control & a load of levers gauges & dials. Your pilot will explain the main instruments & controls whilst you are sitting on the apron then it's time to get permission from the Coventry air traffic control & then get ready for your initiation into aerobatics. Sliding the bubble canopy into place you'll instantly realise that it gives you a superb all round view. It's another advantage of this little Gallic plane after all it's quite useful to be able to see what you're doing when you're literally in a spin! We are offering a 30-minute introduction to aerobatics at Coventry & an ultimate 40-minute flight. The first will give you a taste of what flying aerobatics is like & the second will run you through a full series of aerial manoeuvres like a proper display flight. Both are pretytyy hair raising & we dare you to look down when you're at the crest of your loop the loop
- it's quite something!

Dare yourself to some aerobatics out of Blackbushe! This experience will quite literally turn your world upside down as you take to the skies over Camberley in a Cessna Aerobat aerobatic plane for a thrilling 30-minute flight. If you think your standard air experience is a little tame this is the flight of fancy for you. The two seater Aerobat is your classic high-wing aerobatics trainer having taught many a budding pilot to bust those aerial moves. You'll need to be pretty brave for these aerobatic sessions. It's all quite disorientating when you look up & you see the ground. Miles & miles of it. Where's the sky gone? It's above you & you're flying inverted in your super agile little Cessna! Back to level flight & you'll sink back into your seat giving you just enough time to compose yourself before you're off again pulling off another impressive trick. Taking you on this aerobatic adventure will be Chief Flying Instructor Steve Morley or one of his equally talented colleagues at Camberley. These pilots live for flying & love nothing more than taking the Cessna for a spin with a willing passenger alongside them. & when we say spin we mean it literally. Spin entry & recovery will be explained to you before your skilled pilot sends the plane into a tumble… It's utterly thrilling stuff flying aerobatics & Blackbushe is a great airport to do it from. It's a busy flying club & school with lots of aircraft. A lot more relaxed than it was in its RAF heydey of 1944 when over 3000 staff were stationed here it's steeped in history with civil aviation at Blackbushe since 1945. If you manage to keep your eyes open during your flight you'll get a bird's eye view of all the hustle & bustle of Camberley from the rows & rows of neatly lined motors at the British Car Auctions lot to trains passing through Fleet station & cars streaming along the adjacent A30. & just one more thing. When you sign up for aerobatics at Camberley you'll also get the chance to take control of the Cessna Aerobat. You could be getting you first hands-on taste of aerobatic flying out of Blackbushe Airport thanks to the brilliant instructing team here. ...

You will be flying over the countryside around Swindon in a Slingsby Firefly which is a bit of a gem for aviation fans. It’s a very capable two-seater aerobatic training aircraft that first flew in 1974 used by the RAF from 1995 to 2010 & much-loved by all.

Indeed the plane’s RAF trainer yellow livery & distinctive G-HONG registration is a nod to this Firefly’s story. Originally flown by the Royal Hong Kong Auxiliary Air Force as a Police search & rescue support aircraft she returned to the UK when the unit disbanded. After a stint with the RAF she is now the star of the show at this airfield just outside Swindon.

And we must mention this Firefly is actually a T67 M200 version which is particularly rare as only 26 were ever built. She comes equipped with a more powerful 200bhp single engine & inverted fuel & oil systems
