Tiger Moth West Sussex

Shoreham, West Sussex

Experiences Flash element
 

Our Tiger Moth in West Sussex flies out of Shoreham airfield near Brighton and Hove, the country's oldest licensed public-serving airfield and with its art deco control tower, it's going to be a nostalgic day of flying.

This particular Tiger Moth was built by Moris Motors in 1940. After serving as a trainer and communications aircraft with RAF 312 Squadron, this DeHavilland Tiger Moth was used in aeroclubs and at aeroraces until going into hangar storage in the 60s.

After five years of restoration, the Tiger Moth at Shoreham flies again, named 'The Spirit of Pashley' after a long serving pilot instructor at the airfield. You will delight in being able to experience this magnificent flying machine capable of 109mph at 1000ft with its 120bhp DeHavilland Gipsy III piston engine, for your choice of 15, 30 or 60 minute Tiger Moth flights over the West Sussex coast and countryside.

Experience Summary: Your lesson will start with a thorough briefing which will cover aspects such as flying controls, safety procedures and the basic physics that make an aircraft fly. You will then be shown how to conduct the external and internal pre-flight checks necessary before each flight. Then it's up and away for an experience of a lifetime flying above the beautiful Sussex coastline. Quoted flight times are 'chock to chock' so include start up and taxiing time. Welcome and briefings are in addition to the flying time quoted. The word 'Spitfire' is synonymous with WWII and also vintage aircraft and it gives IntotheBlue great pleasure to offer 'fly by' Spitfire flights where you can accompany a Spitfire over the skies of Dover and the 'white cliff coastline'. Sure to be a 'hit' with Spitfire enthusiasts. 

Availability: Flights take place on Sundays subject to weather conditions. Morning and afternoon flights are usually available
