FLY in a 1944 US Army Air Force Mustang
Mustang 30 minute ‘Cotswold Airport’ Flight
Fly in our P-51D Mustang, the iconic long range WWII fighter aircraft that flew alongside Spitfires and Hurricanes in the 1940s. Now you can ‘ride shotgun’ in the rear seat of ‘W-DC’.
Depart from historic RAF Kemble, now Cotswold Airport, and patrol the skies over Gloucestershire. The bubble canopy provides panoramic views as your pilot provides a running commentary during your flight. You can enjoy a spectacular ‘Victory Roll’ as the pilot demonstrates the effortless performance of this aircraft that served with the USAAF and Royal Canadian Air Force.
The Mustang shares the same Rolls Royce Merlin engine as the Spitfire and is considered by some to be the best piston aircraft of WWII.
