Red Flight Simulators

Two Red Simulators are available for public use, one of which is fully compatible with wheelchair use. Each of them enables visitors to “fly” a number of different types of aircraft associated with Tangmere including a de Havilland Chipmunk, the prototype Spitfire, a Lysander as used by No 161 Squadron to fly SOE agents into and out of French fields during the Second World War, the High Speed Hunter, a Gloster Meteor, a Hawker Hurricane and even affords the opportunity to attempt a Hunter flight under Tower Bridge in London – as performed by a No 1 Squadron pilot some years ago.
