I had been looking forward to this for a long time. Unfortunately with Covid lockdowns it was a long time coming.
However when the day finally arrived I was not disappointed. The team were excellent in explaining everything and allowed my wife airside when it was my time to go.
The aircraft is in fantastic condition and obviously well looked after.
Dave the pilot was very informative and briefed me on what we would be doing. I felt very confident as he told me before every manoeuvre why a pilot would do it in battle conditions. It made me appreciate what those guys had to do just to survive in the Battle of Britain.
Being allowed to take control of a historic aircraft was an unexpected bonus. Pulling 4g was amazing as well.
I would like to say thank you to all involved and good luck for the future.

We just had our long awaited flight on this old plane.....In my opinion, it definitely lived up to the description given and more. What an experience! It also handles smoothly and is touch sensitive....Holding the trottle and moving through the cear, sky was satisfying. If anything....too short a flight for me.
I'm looking forward to the next one!

What an amazing ride in the Wacky Wabbit. Thanks to Dave the pilot for a truly memorable battle of Britain experience and for talking through all the manoeuvres and really bringing it all to life.

To feel the 4g was unbelievable and to do it all in a real war bird was something I will never forget.

I would recommend any flight in her to anyone as she is a very smooth ride but if you are up for the aerobatics you have yo try it.

Thanks also to Mike for settling the nerves and for him and Donny keeping the family entertained while I was off for a flight of a lifetime.

Thank you for a lovely day. The Wacky Wabbit is such a joy and beauty. The aerobatic handling is so firm and smooth. So pleased with this first warbird experience and the personal entry in the logbook. Thanks to David, Donny and Mike for this friendly and exciting experience. Also thanks to the staff in Conington for the pilots' fuel. So glad it finally happened on a beautiful day with great company. - from 3 happy BWPA pilots.

A wonderful flight with helpful pilot and ground crew.

Fantastic experience. Full set of acrobatics, even got to fly the plane myself. One of the bucket list. Not many things i can say i would do again having experienced it for the first time but this ranks amongst my top3 to do again!. Not many adventures you can say that you took part in were as a copilot on a 4G stunt...

I had been really looking forward to the Battle of Britain flight in the t6 from conington, what an amazing experience; relaxed and professional from the start, the run through of the moves, and their purpose during the flight gave a memorable day. It really helped you imaging what it would have been like to fly all those years ago. Well done to all the team there, it’s worth every penny and more

My husband's aerobatic flight in Wacky Wabbit was a fantastic experience! He really enjoyed the flight - the aerobatics were amazing and he was able to take the controls for parts of the flight. Wacky Wabbit is a beautiful example of this historic aircraft and the pilot, David Petters, really showed what she can do! The T6 Harvard team were really friendly and helpful throughout - many thanks to all of them, especially David Petters, Andrew Goodall and Mike Day. My husband and I would highly recommend T6 Harvard and the Wacky Wabbit aerobatic experience.

i had a great experience at Shuttleworth flying the 'Whacky Wabitt'. From the time met by Hannah who was very curteous and kind, to the boarding of the plane and whole experience .. it was fantastic.. Thoroughly recommended.

Excellent is an understatement for both the aircraft and the team of Mike Cumin and Mike Day.

A brilliant experience despite the weather.

The guys flew over to Old Warden as the weather opened a little.

Flying with Mike C was great, as we picked our way around the weather and the support from Mike D was superb.

Just a brilliant time - recommend to any person remotely interested in flying.

Thank you so much for an amazing experience. I loved every second of it. The roll was fantastic, I was a little worried about hanging upside down up so high but I loved it. The two Mikes were both brilliant and could not have been more pleasant. I hope it is working out for you all as it really is a unique experience and should be kept going. The plane is a beauty and in great shape.

If you are thinking about taking a flight in Wacky Wabbit - don’t think, sign up! I flew with Mike Cuming at Old Warden yesterday and it was an amazing, truly memorable experience. Mike took time to find out about my flying experience (PPL and gliding) and then explained every aspect of the T-6 operation pre-take off. Once in the air it was ‘you have control’ until just before landing… except for the aerobatics which were awesome! Again he explained the procedure with me following through on the controls. What a brilliant plane and brilliant pilot. In a weather impaired day things must have been difficult for the team but they handled it calmly and professionally to make sure everyone who was signed up to fly got a brilliant experience. I can’t recommend the flight highly enough.

Cynthia is still laughing (as am I) about her flight experience at Old Warden today. The two Mikes got her into the cockpit (needed a shove up !) the flight was a unique experience and back on the ground the two Mikes caught her when she fell out of the cockpit ! Lovely - thanks guys (we’re still chuckling) and enjoying her expressions on the video, especially doing a Victory roll ! Great day - have a go, you won’t regret it. David Pilgrim 040721

Absolutely fantastic day. Harvard arrived into Peterborough-Connington from Duxford. Relaxed introductions and then straight into it. Stuck to their timelines and the flight itself was brilliant. Plenty of chat with the pilot and an experience i will not forget. Thanks all

Couldn't have been any better. Thanks to all for a magical experience.

What a great experience! From the friendly greeting from Hannah to pilot Glen absolutely fantastic. I loved it and will be back for more 😁

Absolutely incredible, such an amazing experience

It was something that I had wanted to do for a while and so finally I got the chance to do it and I wasn't disappointed.

So thank you to all concerned for making it such an enjoyable experience. If you ever get the chance to do it, just go for it as you won't regret it.

I bought myself a Wabbit flight as soon as I saw the lockdown deal on Twitter. It's been on my to fly list for years so I couldn't say no to the offer!

Andrew was efficient at sorting everything out via email and fast to respond to my questions. Hannah and Donny did a great job as groundcrew on the day. David was a great pilot, talking me through doing manouevres myself and explaining the process for converting to flying warbirds in the future (now a definite addition to my to do list).

A cracking afternoon out, left me smiling for ages! Now I just want to do it again, for longer.

Amazing flight with an amazing pilot! from the moment we turned up,

Andrew showed nothing but professionalism with his approach to getting me ready for the flight - enquiring about my past experiences, explaining about the aircraft and safety procedures and asking about what I would like to do for the flight...

Having done aerobatics myself when i used to groundcrew for the Harvard Formation Team at North Weald, I decided to go for full aerobatics - bringing along my old flying suit and headgear to use - Andrew was kind enough to check out my kit to see if it worked with his current avionic set up (which it did) - and after strapping in - off we went!

What can say....totally amazing time, real fun with half cubans, aileron rolls, etc and pulling up to 3g - the whole thing bought me back to my youth and being 21 again in the cockpit of a Harvard for the first time...the noise, the smells...was pretty emotional for me...

and at the end of this, after landing, Andrew, told me the go-pro vid he took would be sent over to me later - I had totally forgotten that in the pre-flight brief he had told me that i would get a go-pro vid of myself in the cockpit during the flight - some fantastic bit of footage!

All in all a totally amazing day and worth every penny - cannot wait to do it again. Massive thank you to Andrew!
