About the experience
Imagine taking to the Yorkshire skies in a vintage De Havilland Tiger Moth from Breighton Airfield near Selby. It's an experience like no other - the wind in your face, the roar of the engine, and the charm of open cockpit flying. The Tiger Moth is an iconic plane and flying in it is an absolute delight. Despite the noise and windswept feeling, it's an experience that gives you a true sense of aviation heritage. This particular Tiger Moth, with serial number N9372, once served as an RAF trainer in Wiltshire, Warwickshire, and Cambridgeshire, training new pilots during the war years. Now based in Yorkshire under the civil registration G-ANHK, it preserves the RAF trainer colors and is ready to take you on a 15-minute flight above the beautiful landscapes of Selby and beyond. Breighton Airfield, with its history as an RAF bomber base and cold war missile site, has now transformed into a haven for classic and vintage aircraft. It's the perfect place to experience flying in a Tiger Moth and immerse yourself in aviation history.
