• Aerobatic Warbird Experience

  
  For the more adventurous, this flight will depart Ardmore Airport south to Miranda on the Firth of Thames for aerobatic manoeuvres. Return to Ardmore via the Hunua Ranges and coastal low flying area. The aerobatics are not extreme, rather classical manoeuvres of chandelles, rolls and loops. Experience the true feel of these fighting machines and flight at five hundred feet, the only thing missing is the bad guys shooting at you. Duration approximately 25 minutes airborne.
