Absolutely brilliant time flying both simulators. Staff were incredibly helpful throughout the experience and the flying had my smiling from ear to ear. Would 100% recommend to anyone wanting to try their hand at flying simulators but would recommend the less experienced person start out on the spitfire

The Spitfire/Messerschmitt simulator experience (1 hour) is amazing. Under the expert guidance of Mark and Chris we managed to keep the aircraft (mainly) in the air. We swapped aircraft mid way so we both experienced the different handling characteristics of each aircraft. It certainly gave you an understanding of the skill of the pilots flying these planes.An experience I would thoroughly recommend.

I bought a Spitfire flying experience for my Dad. Actually, I ordered two so that I could have a go myself as well!From the initial booking to the experience itself, the service offered by Fly a Flight was first class. Our instructor, Chris, was extremely knowledgeable, both on the aircraft itself and the technical aspects of flying. 30 minutes passes very quickly and I departed wanting another go!Highly recommended!

Wow! What a fantastic experience. Bought for hubby as present- 2 hours in the 737! Exceeded all expectations. Staff are all lovely and very knowledgeable! Will be coming back for another go on the 737 and to take my son for the spitfire experience! Highly recommend

Booked a 30 minute flight on the 737 simulator at Fly a Flight as part of a red letter day experience and it was fanstatic! The set up in the simulator is so good you forget that you're in a simulator and makes you feel like you're in the real thing. The captain who is with you for you flight was so knowledgeable (can't remember how many years experience he had but it was a lot) and he talks you through every aspect before and during making everything feel so easy.During the flight I got to do a takeoff and landing at Nice and Gibraltar airports, so it's not just flying the 737 you're experiencing a lot of what it's like to fly these plans. The time went so quickly but a lot was crammed into that time. If you have any sort of interest in planes and can't afford to get up in the real thing then I definitely recommend giving this a go!!

Had a superb experience in a genuine B737-800 simulator. Very experienced captain to guide and help as much or as little as you want. Very friendly atmosphere all round so very highly recommended and I will be back. Thoroughly enjoyable experience.

A very rewarding flying experience! If you are a flight enthusiast, you should not miss this experience. The address is just 10 minutes from the train station in Leighton Buzzard, and if you want to take public transport, it takes about 20 minutes, which is also very convenient. The cockpit of the experience is beyond realistic and the captain is very friendly and will explain the different levels of difficulty depending on how much you know about the aircraft. You have plenty of autonomy throughout the experience. You are free to choose your preferred airport, the weather, the time of day and even the way you operate (you can choose the simpler auto-power or try the more complex airports and manual power). The whole process is very enjoyable and rewarding, and the captain is always available to guide you through the operation and help you with some of the manoeuvring steps (e.g. landing gear release). I was particularly pleased with this and would heartily recommend it to you guys

I took my boys to fly the Boeing 737 and let me just say it was one of THE most fun experiences! Our Pilot was exceptional in his explanation of the cockpit and helping the boys take off and land. The instruments are top notch and the graphics are fantastically realistic. We loved every minute and will definitely be going back soon. If you want something fun for your kids to do, this is money utterly well spent. Thank you for a great memory made!
