30 Minute Aerobatic Flying Lesson
Ever wanted to experience "barrel roll" or "loop the loop" in an aircraft? eXhilaration has teamed up with some top aerobatic pilots to give you the ride of your life.
Locations
- Cambridgeshire
- Essex
- Surrey
What does the activity include?
Your instructor will start the session with a pre-flight briefing, explaining how the aircraft (either a Cessna 152 Aerobat or a Slingsby Firefly) is capable of aerobatic flight. Once you are in the air your instructor will accelerate the aircraft to over 130 mph before starting a sequence of aerobatic maneuvres which may include loops, rolls, wingovers and even the dreaded spin.
Please Note: The manoeuvres described above are only an example of what you may experience and will differ depending on the location.
Where does the experience take place?
Wansford in Peterborough, Camberley in Surrey, Stapleford in Essex and Redhill in Surrey.
What should I wear/take?
You should wear comfortable clothes appropriate for the time of year and a pair of sensible shoes are recommended.
How long should I allow for this experience?
You should allow approximately 25-30 minutes for the flight itself (from taxi to landing)but you should allow around an hour for the whole experience.
When does the activity take place?
The experience is available all year round.
We recommend you book at least four weeks in advance to ensure that dates are available before the expiry date listed on the voucher. This is only a guideline and we advise you book as early as possible to avoid disappointment. You must book and take your experience before the expiry date. All bookings are subject to availability.

Minimum height 5 feet (guideline only)
Maximum height 6 feet 4 inches (guideline only)

The above restrictions may vary depending on the location, please check with eXhilaration if you have any concerns.
What about the weather?
Light aircraft are not usually affected too badly by weather conditions. If, however, your experience cannot take place due to the adverse weather, an alternative date will be offered to you.
Can I bring spectators?
Spectators are welcome although views may be limited as the lesson will take place away from the airfield in most cases.
