Wonderful Tiger Moth flights over the Cotswolds! Classic aviation comes to the beautiful Cotswolds with a whole range of flight durations on offer. Departing from Cotswold Airport just a few miles from Cirencester it's going to be great views & great fun all the way! Back in the day this was RAF Kemble. The airfield was home to the No 5 Maintenance Unit from 1938 & by the end of 1939 over 600 aircraft were based here in Kemble. The fleet included Tiger Moths just like the one you will be flying in today over the gorgeous corner of Gloucestershire. In those days it was young trainee fighter pilots who took to the skies above the Cotswolds to learn their craft
- now it's you! This operator has a trio of lovingly restored Moths in their collection. Charged with the enviable task of flying these historic aircraft is a team of highly skilled pilots. They've all got oodles experience from flying modern jet fighters & air liners around the world to taking delicate warbirds out to fly-ins & air displays. No matter how many modern & classic planes they've flown amongst them all agree that 'nothing puts a smile on a customer's face quite like a ride in the iconic Tiger Moth'. We can't say fairer than that! Indeed it's amazing to think how much these beloved biplanes contributed in creating wartime heroes setting those courageous young pilots on the path to being ace fighter pilots. We think it's time you experienced a bit of that for yourself which is why we've gone for the range of flight durations out of Kemble Airfield from 20 to 60-minutes to suit all budgets. You'll prepare to soar over the Cotswold skies in your Tiger Moth by donning a traditional leather flying jacket with goggles. Then once installed in the front seat of the cockpit (for the best view!) you're ready for take off. Give a hearty wave to your friends & family watching from the sidelines & away you go!

If you've never tried Via Ferrata before it's time to get your outdoor gear on & have a go at this exhilarating climbing sport! Via Ferrata literally means 'iron road' in Italian & is the name used to describe the metal steps & bridges that were installed along treacherous mountains passes in the Alps in the First World War to help soldiers traverse strategic Alpine crossing points. The name has stuck & now it's a really popular leisure pursuit in Europe. The Via Ferrata you'll be tackling is actually the very first in Scotland & only the second set up in the whole of the UK. & the team has chosen a stunning spot for it. You'll be scaling the heights within touching distance of the Grey Mare's Tail waterfall in Kinlochleven. One of Scotland's biggest cascades of fast-flowing water the route you'll be clambering tops out at around 90m just above the mouth of the waterfall at 85m. Yes it really is as impressive as it sounds. The rock face has been equipped with metal steps called 'staples'
- because that's exactly what they look like (albeit totally massive ones!) wooden planks metal cable bridges & ladders too. You'll be kitted out with a body harness & a karabiner so that you are attached at all times so logic tells you you can't actually fall very far but it's still pretty hectic. In fact we can honestly say the moving up the granite face isn't that challenging physically it's all about how high it is & how exposed you feel. If you dare look behind you you'll see the waters of Loch Leven glistening in the background. Look sideways & there's the waterfall (you might even feel the spray in your face!) & look down (eek!) & you'll see the instructors grinning at you as they shout words of encouragement. As you negotiate the metal that tests your mettle nothing can describe the feeling as you haul yourself over the final ledge. You feel so alive so pleased with yourself that you conquered this impressive Via Ferrata. Stand up take a moment to catch your breath & then take a look around you. stunning isn't it? & all the more incredible when you think without those metal rungs & cables there's no other way of getting up to that viewpoint. Of course Via Ferrata certainly isn't for everyone but it is a novel way of scaling the granite that doesn't require enormous physical strength or climbing skill but you will definitely have to have a head for heights. We offer lots of high-speed activities here at Intothe Blue.co.uk but despite the near walking pace of this activity we think this Via Ferrata with views across the Scottish hills guarantees the highest thrills. Isn't it time you climbed the iron road?

Product Description

Take virtual flying to new heights with this high-tech VR simulator! Unique in the North East of England this flight sim operator has created a virtual reality Spitfire flight that’ll have you believing you’re a fully fledged RAF fighter pilot courageously protecting those British skies in the midst of the Battle of Britain.

There you are dozing in a deckchair outside the hut. Suddenly the call comes in: ‘ Dover 26 000. 50 bandits approaching from the south-east’. Time to scramble to your plane. Mae West on & the crew has already got the the engine started. Hood pulled over the cockpit there’s barely time to check the trim wheels or fuel tanks before you’re in position for take off bouncing along the grass runway.

As you move into formation with the other Spitfires of your Squadron you try & think tactics. But out of the haze comes what looks like the whole of the Luftwaffe. Big heavy bombers at 2 o’clock flanked by the formidable ME109s. Keep your head moving check back & above for enemy aircraft. But how do you avoid the tracer fire raining down on you? The clattering of your own guns rattles your brain…

This is a virtual reality aerial dogfight in full swing & you’re right in the middle of it all. You battle to control your Spitfire & go head to head with the Jerrys to try & foil the latest Luftwaffe raid on London. & yes it’s a VR game but boy does it feel very very real!

The authenticity of these VR sims is made all the more believable by the fact that you’ll be sitting in a full scale replica Spitfire Mk II cockpit feeling the sense of apprehension just like all those brave airmen & women of WWII. You’ll be fitted with a full VR gaming headset so every which way you turn your head you’ll see what’s going on in your Battle of Britain scenario from exactly the same point of view as the pilot.

These VR simulator flights give you a thrilling new dimension to discover. Don't forget these are just games but you will feel very much involved in your airborne mission. & of course if all that air-to-air combat is just too realistic for you you can take your VR Spitfire for a cruise along the coastline with no enemy bullets to dodge.
