Want to learn some fancy aerobatics in Essex? Yearning to do a loop the loop in a plane? Well these aerobatics experiences out of Stapleford Aerodrome will get you off to a flying start as you make your foray into the world of aerial free styling using one of the best trainer aircraft designed for the job. The Slingsby Firefly is actually a British-built aeroplane & a specially modified military version served as the basic aerobatics trainer in the RAF from 1995 to 2010 before it was replaced by the Grob. This little low-wing high performance plane has seen some serious action including a certain member of the Royal Family who earned his spinning wings in one
- but we couldn't possibly divulge who it was… And although you'll be treated like a VIP for your session there are no airs & graces here as it's all very down to earth & friendly here in Stapleford with their Firefly. The team is highly experienced with a CV in flying & aerobatics that's as long as your arm. All that means your accompanying pilot instructor is an expert when it comes to handling the Slingsby & will be only too pleased to show you the ropes. It's worth noting that the Slingsby you'll be flying in is the T67M. This 160hp 'M' version is considered by aficionados as the best version of the Firefly there is as it is the modified military model. In aeronautical techno-geek speak that means it has a constant-speed propeller & an inverted fuel & oil system which for us mere mortals means that it can fly for quite a long time upside down! So now you've got the right aeroplane for the job & a fully qualified instructor it's time to get ready for some aerobatics above the Essex skies. Step out onto the apron & after a walk around this very pretty little Firefly it's time to climb aboard the cockpit (admittedly a little snug!) get the harness on & get ready to fly Once airborne & cruising happily you will be asked if you'd like to take control. They tell us the Slingsby is a 'real stick & rudder plane' that requires skill & precise gentle handling to get the best out of it so we'll soon see if you've got what it takes. & of course your flight

Includes::
a spectacular run of aerobatics over Essex that's bound to include a loop the loop & if you're brave enough maybe a few slow stylish spins that the Slingsby is famous for.

Book your flight simulator slot in Essex! Located within the flight training school at Earls Colne airfield this simulator is ready & waiting to give you that flying feeling without ever leaving the ground. We are offering a 60-minute session in the sim. You'll be accompanied by one of the school's instructor pilots who will show you how everything works. & although the simulator is fixed base all the controls are just as you'd find in an actual light aircraft. The set-up is based on a Robin HR200. This low-wing two-seater is the plane of choice at this airfield & there are a fair few of them in the fleet used for actual flight training so it makes total sense to have one as a simulator too. It's usually used to assist pilots who want to pass their night flying & IMC (Instrument meteorological conditions) ratings as the simulator is an excellent means of practicing the skills needed. For you it's all about getting your first taste of flying solo. It's you who will be sitting in the captain's seat whilst your instructor will be alongside you. The idea is that you are in control all the time from taxiing to the runway & take off to nailing that tricky landing. It's not as easy as it looks so prepare yourself for maximum concentration as you try & get those wheels down! As for where you'll be going on your simulator flight in Essex it's up to you! In an hour you can fly a full sector quite easily. One of the most popular options is a low-level flight over London taking in the sights as you follow the Thames. You can also add in extra little challenges like a spot of bad weather a notoriously hairy approach or even an aircraft malfunction. So if you fancy honing your piloting skills in a flight simulator this Essex school offers a neat little set up with a full cockpit mock-up. What's more it's based at a busy general aviation airfield where there's always a lot going on making it ideal for aviation fans. & you can invite up to two friends or family to join you on the day & watch your progress in the sim. ...
