This experience gives you a unique perspective on the sights of London - and one that doesn't involve being either cooped up on the tube or jostled on crowded pavements. After a short pre-flight briefing you'll board a Piper Seneca twin-engine plane for a fantastic half hour sightseeing trip. After taking off in Essex you'll follow the Thames west into the heart of the city, getting a view of the capital that most people only see on the opening titles of EastEnders. Whilst toasting your flight with a bottle of champagne you'll see the Millennium Dome, Tower Bridge, HMS Belfast, the towers at Canary Wharf, the London Eye and the Houses of Parliament, then turn north to fly over Trafalgar Square, Buckingham Palace and the royal parks, before heading back east to land in Essex. You'll get an amazing perspective on the geography of the city and the beauty of its landmarks - and whether you're tourists or Londoners born and bred, you'll see the capital in a whole new way.

Can't decide between flying, driving and sightseeing? Try all three at the Imperial War Museum Duxford. Your experience begins with a briefing in the control tower, then don a flight jacket for a flying lesson in a genuine De Havilland Tiger Moth, the quintessential English biplane, and discover why generations of flyers have fallen in love with these spunky little planes. Back on solid ground, pose for a picture with the Tiger Moth, before hitting Duxford's military testing ground for a driving lesson in an armoured personnel carrier. After a buffet lunch back at the tower, let someone else do the driving on a flight over Cambridge in a De Havilland Dragon Rapide, recreating the early years of passenger air travel and enjoying unrivalled views over the Fens and the city. Then get a short, private guided tour of Duxford's aircraft collection, including Spitfires, a B17 and the prototype Concorde. You'll finish with a champagne toast and a certificate presentation.

In planes that, until recently were used by the Swedish Airforce, take to the skies over England with a fully qualified instructor to put the quick and manoeuvrable Bulldog through its paces. Following a detailed safety and technical briefing, a formation take off, aerobatic flying and a formation loop are just some of the possibilities during your 30 minute flight. The real highlight is the opportunity to tail chase one of the other planes, just like you have seen it done in the films! Location: Gloucestershire (Midlands) Click Here for More Details...

These days air travel is a nightmare of queues, checks and delays - and modern passenger jets are so vast that it's easy to forget you're in the air at all. Recreate the thrill of early air travel with a flight in a lovingly restored pre-war De Havilland Dragon Rapide biplane. Taking off from the Imperial War Museum Duxford, you'll fly south to London, enjoying magnificent views from 1,500 feet. First the Millennium Dome appears on the horizon, followed by London's famous skyline. You'll get wonderful views of the capital's landmarks, including Canary Wharf, St Paul's Cathedral, the royal parks and palaces and the meandering Thames. Back on terra firma, you'll get free entry into the Imperial War Museum (and half price entry for any guests) - it's Europe's premier aviation museum, spread over 85 acres and housing classic planes like Spitfires, a B17 and the prototype Concorde.

The “Ultimate Top Gun Experience” is unique in the UK, and is the closest you can get to being a fighter pilot for the day. After a formation take-off and close formation manoeuvring, you will fly some aerobatic manoeuvres (yourself!) and be introduced to tail-chasing/simulated air combat against your opponents aircraft - the sport of kings! This is a hands on experience – you are not a passenger – you fly the plane, you feel the g-force, you get the thrill. “Ultimate Top Gun” air combat/tailchasing flights are in the Extra 300, a modern high performance display aircraft. The trip is flown in pairs in close formation. Guests are able to fly a large proportion of the flight themselves (apart from take-off, landing and close formation), under the careful guidance of their instructor. As flights are tailored to the individual, they can be as mild or wild as you choose! Click Here for More Details...
