T6 harvard Ltd Reviews 191

I have just had the most wonderful flight in your Harvard. This was a gift bought for me by my friends and arranged by my wife to celebrate leaving the RAF after 34 years.

To say it was an emotional experience is an understatement, the smell of the ac coupled with the chat about the history of the ac and the people that flew it by the pilot, James, made for an emotional and unforgettable end to my career.

Thank you doesn’t really cover it, but is was a fantastic day put on by the pilots, the engineering ground crew and all the other staff.

I feel very lucky to have been able to have this experience.

Booked this for my 16 yr son, in the words of him , awesome, wicked , so cool !!!
What a fantastic morning, arrived to such a warm welcome, all the staff were extremely friendly, and helpful, after the briefing up went my son taken by James the pilot in the wacky wabbit , he gave a great and full commentary on what was happening, reliving the war experience, my son done aerobatics,, loops , rolls , banks and even took control of the plane !!!
Wow wow wow , it was fantastic
We purchased the cockpit footage on usb of the whole flight and definitely recommend that !!
Would definitely recommend to anyone else who wants this awesome experience!!!
Well done T6 Harvard ltd 👍

Keith's Birthday experience.
With thanks to my pilot James and all the friendly staff for the privilege of allowing me the experience and gratitude to all those young men who fought for our freedom today. What a wonderful flight in the Harvard which made my day.
Highly (into the clouds) recommended.

The experience was amazing and the pilots to. They were super professional and nice to chat to and I strongly recommend anyone who likes I bit of fun and adventure to try out this phenomenal ride. // Max and Alex

Fulfilled my ambition to fly in a Harvard trainer with T6 Harvard Ltd. Having already flown a Tiger Moth and a Spitfire IX, I wanted to complete the fighter pilot trio, so this experience was a must. We arrived a bit late (traffic!) but it didn't phase the team and I was taken out to the "Wacky Wabbit" to meet Adam my pilot. Once strapped in the flight was brilliant and I was able to fly the Harvard, chat with the amazingly knowledgeable Adam and experience some exciting rolls! Afterwards, James and I talked about the company and their important work in keeping warbirds like the T6 Harvard flying. Highly recommend booking with these great guys!

This really appealed as Dad was a BoB Hurricane pilot (and had flown Harvards) so naturally went with the Battle of Britain experience. In a nutshell, it was utterly brilliant. Ground and flying crew were extremely friendly, welcoming and helpful. The flight itself was such a terrific experience and the Barrel Rolls were moving in many ways - particularly appreciated once we had safely landed! The pilot's commentary was very helpful and he was both enthusiastic and encouraging which added greatly to the flight. If anyone has an interest in WW2 and these lovely aircraft then not only is it a brilliant and unforgettable experience, it is also fabulous value for money. I'm no longer interested in paying a small/medium fortune to fly in a Spitfire, this flight gave me everything I wanted plus more besides. If you can, go for it! PS The quality of the cockpit rear facing video is extremely high quality and really worth getting.

Amazing expirence!!!!
James took me in the auster second time ive flown with james first in the wabbit. Loved both nice smooth take off and landing . Team amazing. Would i go again in a heartbeat.

Very friendly and accomodating. Thoroughly enjoyable and cost effective way of fulfilling that warbird dream.

My family purchased this flight as a present for my birthday. This is truly a one off experience, from the ground staff to the pilot Adam, all were friendly, knowledgeable, and put me at ease!
Just do it. You only live once.
Thank you.

Absolute worth it!! Back in time with the T6 😆Did not book in advance but met Andy and the airman at Fowlmere. Good to go to fly half hour myself: loopings and barrels!! Thanks Dave and Andy for the opportunity 🙏

This was one of the most enjoyable experiences I've ever had in my life! Each member of staff was so kind and so friendly, they couldn't have been nicer or more accommodating. The 'Battle of Britan' flight was absolutely incredible, as soon as I landed I wanted to go straight back up again. If you're considering booking this, don't hesitate! Thank you James for such an incredible experience.

Booked the Battle of Britain flight for some wonderful aerobatics with James! Stupendous!

Superb Battle of Britain experience in the Wacky Rabbit. The day was made especially memorable by Captain James Hepnar with his interesting history facts and excellent flying skills. Wonderful to take control of the Harvard, as those young pilots did before graduating to Hurricanes and Spitfires. Highly recommended,

The flight was a little bit of an unusual Christmas present from my boyfriend considering I am petrified of flying! However, much to everyone's surprise (including my own) I loved it!
We had managed to select one of the very few glorious days we have in England to fly and arrived to the site a little early which meant we had a chance to meet and chat with some of the pilots flying the T6 that day. They were all so so friendly and happy to answer all the questions and concerns I might have had an put me at ease before the flight.
Even when we were making our way to the runway I still had reservations (which you can see in the video) but they all melted away once we got up there and started to have some fun with rolls and loops! What an experience!
Luckily, its all captured on video so I can prove I did it. Even if I have to advise watching it on mute as I may or may not have screamed in a few places. haha

My wife purchased a Warbird Experience with the T6 Harvard as my 80th birthday present.
Both of us duly arrived on June 10 2023 at Fowlmere (Cambridgeshire) airfield to a cloudless sky, with a slight haze but good visibility, and received the friendliest welcome by the pilot and groundcrew.
Before entering the cockpit, Adam, my pilot, with the aid of miniature models, explained that we would engage in a mock dog fight as part of the hour-long flight, and then talked me through where we would be flying, including the USAF memorial and headstones at Alconbury.
I was given control of the aircraft for a good 80% of the flight time - a truly exhilarating experience – before Adam took back control and proceeded to put the aircraft through a number of manoeuvres, including barrel rolls and loops, pulling 3g and much more in the process.
I was happy to purchase the in-flight video as a visible reminder of the incredible flight that I experienced.
A very big thank you to all of the Wacky Rabbit team members for a truly memorable day.
It would be very remiss of me if I didn’t recommend this experience highly enough. To anyone who would listen to me, I have only one thing to say, and that is: Just do it!

I had the Battle of Britain experience with the team today from Fowlmere. All the staff are extremely friendly and only too willing to make the flight as enjoyable as possible. Thank you to Adam my pilot for a thorough briefing on the flight and talking through the manoeuvres whilst airborne. A thoroughly enjoyable flight and I would highly recommend the experience with these guys.

Recently went through my Harvard conversion training at T-6 Harvard Ltd. Even though flying this big, radial engined beauty doesn't come cheap it was worth every single penny: the aeroplane is immaculate and very well looked after by the best warbird engineering firm in the business (no expenses spared here!) while the people managing the operations are probably the most warm and friendly "Brits" I've ever met.
Dave and Andy were super helpful in arranging a slot of 5 days for me to complete my conversion during the very few HP days that Airline Flying allows during peak season. Of these 5 days, 4 were spent flying, with Dave coaching me through all the peculiar characteristics of the Harvard, both on ground and in flight, slowly helping building my confidence in this lovely flying machine in a precise and non-intrusive way: at the end of these days I was sunburnt like an idiot, confident in the aircraft, and with a massive grin on my face that still refuses to go away...two weeks later!
So, if you are lucky enough to have bought one and need dual instruction or if you are a bored Airbus driver (like me) looking for a challenge to spark-up the flame of passion that only flying "proper aeroplanes" gives well, look no further: this is the place for you!

"Tally-ho!"

What a fantastic experience after booking arriving at Old warden airshow on 4th June my first pit stop was the t6harvard ltd stall to book my flight that day. I'm so glad I did, the whole experience was amazing and my pilot James was a pleasure to fly with and gave great commentary with the history of what what young pilots went through during the 1940's. Definitely recommend the battle of britain flight, the twists and turns and experiencing the g force of simulating active combat was a feeling I will never forget and the fun of both me and the pilot automatically shouting dagger dagger dagger while attacking the clouds just made this flight as comical as well as exhilarating. Many thanks again again to James and Mike from the ground crew.

I went with my 88 year old Dad to a fantastic air show at the Shuttleworth Collection today (4.6.23)
He used to fly and out of the blue said would I like to take a trip in the Harvard. I said yes but had no idea until I was sat behind the pilot quite what it entailed. It was the most extraordinary experience but not perhaps for the obvious reasons.
Was it exciting, unique and a brilliantly skilled acrobatic display of a beautiful aircraft? Yes, but it was also moving, emotional and poetic. The team who fly, maintain the craft and promote events to literally keep her in the sky, do so out of their huge passion. It was this passion that came across from the moment we chatted on the ground to when I stepped out onto the wing after being flown, rolled and arc-ed in her. The wonderful pilot who took me up, told of those who had flown her during the war, how they might have felt, how vulnerable they were, how brave.
It was this combination of the beauty of the aircrafts engineering, the extraordinary experience of the flight and the acrobatics and the profound history of when and who had flown her, that made this experience so unique.
I am so grateful to my Dad for his generous treat, and I am hugely grateful to those who flew her then and those who keep her flying now.
Thank you.

What a wonderful day. What a pleasure to fly in the Harvard. From the moment I arrived at the airfield I was so well treated by all concerned, the owner of the aircraft, the pilot, and the ground crew, they made a great day special. Also many thanks to Donny who stepped in as my photographer so I have some special pictures of the day.
