The briefing session may be shared. Spectators: Spectators are welcome. A camera or a pair of binoculars will come in handy - there will be some great photo opportunities. Pets are not permitted at any airfield (except guide dogs). Dress Code: Wear flat, soft-soled shoes. Any special clothing and headsets will be provided. Bring gloves in cold weather.

Pregnant women, anyone who has suffered a neck, back or shoulder injury or is unable to climb aboard unaided can't fly for health and safety reasons.

From Shoreham Airport in West Sussex, you will be greeted on arrival and can chat to your instructor about any specific requirements. There will be some comprehensive training to go through on the ground first. Then board and hang on tight for the ride! The instructor will have you upside down as the plane does rolls, loops and stall turns. For those who are feeling brave, if the instructor agrees, take over the controls and have a go at flying yourself.
