Note: Other Extra 300 Experience flights are available.

At White Waltham, you can fly with a genuine Unlimited aerobatic champion, they won't make you wear a high-viz spaz-jacket at any stage, the food is better, but the runways are slightly more bumpy than Kemble.

UH are very nice chaps though.

If you're more over the East Anglian direction there's the brand new Extra 200 at Cambridge available for trial lessons (spazzy hi-viz provided!).

Mmmmm - need to get back up in it!

Thats assuming of course that flying with an ex Synchro Leader from the Red Arrows just doesnt do it for you...if you want genuine try and top that..

I think you'll find that unlimited aerobatics is a lot more advanced than the Dead Sparrows...never seen the Deads do a spin or a flick roll for example.

Not that Ultimate High don't do them, but I expect the experience with Mr Cassidy and Ultimate High are on a par, both use Extra 300s and the limit is probably the passenger rather than the aircraft or pilot.

Both will be very enjoyable and possibly addictive.
