On this day in 1936, the Spitfire prototype K5054 had its maiden flight at Southampton Municipal Airport, Eastleigh.
The aircraft was designed and built locally by R. J. Mitchell and his team at the Supermarine factory in Woolston.
The Spitfire would go on to become an iconic symbol in the fight against Na**sm.

Price List
As we open again at both Glasgow International Airport & Prestwick International Airport for solo flying we have restructured our pricing
Our aircraft rates have been reduced and our block times are now capped at 'airborne + 10 minutes'.
For a limited time we will be offering an additional 10% off our block prices.
Please email [email protected] if you would like to take advantage of this offer. Obviously, it will be subject to approval by our Head of Training as we are not currently allowed dual flight for check-outs.
These will be valid for 3 months and are intended to help our members get back up to speed after the extended restrictions.

We will be releasing dates and times for some open 'Zoom' meetings for members.
The first will be a general chat session to let us check the format.
There will then be 2 or 3 sessions (more if required) to clarify the requirements for members to start flying again!!!
If successful, we intend using this technology in the future to provide additional facilities such as remote training sessions.
Keep an eye out for these date. And stay safe.
