    Have you flown in or alongside a Spitfire? Have you ever sat in the cockpit of one? If you plan to do so, when is the big event?

    I had the enormous pleasure of meeting Sir Douglas Bader at the 40th Anniversary of The Battle of Britain here in Toronto.
    Would love to fly in that

      That must have been quite a meeting!

      It was so awesome. I said to him that he looked nothing like Kenneth Moore

    I’ve flown with Aero Legends at Headcorn several times. I highly recommend them & the location. You are just a few minutes from the White Cliffs, Capel-le-Ferne & Dover. Headcorn is a grass airstrip that was USAF Lashenden during WW2. With no London height limits you can do loops & rolls without restriction. You can get control of the stick for a while & feel just how responsive the Spitfire is. All my life I had looked up at the silhouette of the iconic plane. It’s a privilege to look down on those beautiful elliptical wings from above & to smell and hear the RR Merlin engine. The experience in the Spitfire is the most fun thing you will ever do, but it’s highly emotional and poignant too. The minimum flight time is 30 mins (20mins airborne). If you can possibly afford it, buy a longer flight. It’s all over so quickly. It is very expensive. I’ve saved hard for my flights & have never regretted a single penny. At Headcorn there is also the Lashenden Air Warfare Museum to look round.
    This is a good, informative video guide to your Spitfire options. You can also visit The Two Seat Spitfire page on Facebook.
    If you fancy a ride in the other Battle of Britain aeroplane, Biggin Hill have just acquired a two seat, dual control Hurricane. (Sept 2020)

      Congratulations on fulfilling that ambition. I must get over to Headcorn one day. 😀

    Not quite sure where to fly from; the Grace Spitfire is gorgeous, Biggin Hill has the heritage; two genuine Spits plus a chance to look around the hangar post flight; the Boultbee spitfires are ideal for coastal flights given their location BUT they only have one original Spit...opinions anyone?!

    • @BenLovegrove
      @BenLovegrove  4 года назад +2

      Personally I would opt for the Boultbee but that's because I live nearby and often seen their Spitfire giving flights at Solent Airport. I would then go to Biggin for a hangar tour on another day.

      Nick, did you fly or have you booked?
      I’d go to Headcorn every time, for more reasons than there is space to write about here.
