Aerobatic Flying Experiences

Slingsby T-67 Firefly
The Slingsby T-67 Firefly is one of the leading high performance aerobatic aircraft. Some pilots think about flying airplanes almost every day. They make imaginary flights while driving their car or even at their desk. And sometimes imagining can seem better than actually flying. But never in a Firefly! It's an experience that's almost impossible to describe. You think "turn" and you turn. You think "roll" and you roll. Turn it over and it flies just as if it were right side up. Even after several hundred hours, each flight is an exhilarating, awesome experience. So if anyone ever asks you to go for a ride, be prepared to be infected with an incurable passion. Because there is nothing, absolutely nothing that flies like a Firefly.

de Havilland Chipmunk
If you are lucky enough to experience aerobatics in a Chipmunk, you will see that it does most of what the Firefly does, but in a 1950's aircraft made of aluminium. You will feel like being a second world war pilot dogfighting, performing all the figures and tricks that could save your life or win you victories.
