Fly a Bi-Plane Experience For Two
Fly a Bi-Plane experience for two from Headcorn Aerodrome, Kent or from Compton Abbas, Dorset. Fly the only airworthy Thruxton Jackaroo, a 4-seat modified 1930’s Tiger Moth with an enclosed canopy. Enjoy vintage Bi-Plane flying without the wind in your hair! Affectionately referred to as the ‘Gentleman’s Carriage’ by our pilots, there is no finer way to see the iconic land marks below. In the South East they include Leeds Castle, the Battle of Britain Memorial at Capel Le Ferne, the White Cliffs of Dover and Beachy Head. Seated atop a hill in the heart of Dorset countryside, Compton Abbas Airfield provides a breathtaking backdrop for flying training and experiences.
