Take control in the world’s only Spitfire Simulator used for real pilot training, with thrilling 30 or 60-minute flight experiences. This isn’t just like flying a Spitfire - it is flying a Spitfire!
Built with a real Spitfire fuselage, advanced visual and sound systems, and full-motion with force feedback, this simulator delivers the most immersive and authentic Spitfire experience possible without leaving the ground.
Introduced in 1942 to counter the Focke-Wulf Fw 190, the Spitfire Mk IX, featured a powerful Merlin 61 engine and excelled at high altitudes. Renowned for speed, agility, and firepower, it became one of the RAF’s most successful fighters, playing a vital role in regaining air superiority over Europe during WWII.
The Spitfire is tricky on the ground but pure joy in the air. You’ll start airborne, but if you're ready, try a takeoff or landing. Powered by a 27-litre Rolls-Royce Merlin engine, even straight flight excites. Learn the basics, try aerobatics, and bring her home with a Victory Roll.
A world-exclusive Spitfire simulator built with 50% wartime parts. Featuring an authentic cockpit, original gauges, full-scale wings, and a 220° dome. Motion and force feedback recreate engine rumble, runway bumps, and control stiffness for a truly immersive flight.
This experience is available throughout the year. Please telephone the team at Spitfires.com on 01243 531147 to book the date and time of your flight
The fuselage is built from 50% wartime parts that once defended our freedom, 40% restoration spares, and 10% custom-made for digital integration. The cockpit is indistinguishable from a real Spitfire, veterans and pilots agree. Original gauges retain their dials and “needle wobble,” while many controls, including the spade grip, are genuine wartime pieces. Flying this simulator means flying a true piece of history.
The fuselage sits in a 1.5m-radius dome with 220° projection, using seven seamlessly blended projectors. From the cockpit, you see wings, nose, and moving controls at full scale, with photorealistic scenery of Goodwood, Southampton, Shoreham, and beyond. A headset delivers the iconic Merlin engine sound, while the instructor can speak as ATC or trainer, creating total immersion.
The simulator’s motion and force feedback systems add the final touch of realism. Pitch movement recreates bumps, vibrations, and turbulence, while force feedback controls mirror true Spitfire handling, stiff at speed, lighter when slow. Together, they let the aircraft “talk” to the pilot, making the experience feel like flying the real thing.
Simulator pilots cannot be heavier than 110kg and above 193cm tall. They must be physically able to enter and exit the simulator unassisted.
One guest can accompany you to watch you take flight.
Comfortable clothing is recommended along with enclosed footwear.
Vouchers are valid for 12 months from the date of purchase.
