FLY a Spitfire from Cotswold Airport (RAF Kemble)
30 Minute ‘Fly a Spitfire’ Experience
Before you fly a Spitfire from Kemble airfield you’ll plan your flight with your Pilot. You can opt for sightseeing, some aerobatics or perhaps even fly over your house if it’s within range.
Depart from RAF KEMBLE (Cotswold Airport) and immediately you’ll be flying over the rolling Cotswold countryside with views of picturesque country houses and villages.
Once clear of the airfield you’ll have the chance to take the controls under the guidance of your Spitfire pilots so you can say that ‘I’ve flown a Spitfire!’
See the rolling hills passing beneath the famous elliptical wing and enjoy the power of the mighty Merlin V12 engine.
Unrestricted guest numbers can watch you take off and land from our viewing area.
