This gift voucher for two brings history to life with a scenic helicopter flight over the stunning Peak District National Park. On 16 May 1943, nineteen Lancaster bombers from the specially formed No. 617 Squadron RAF departed RAF Scampton on a daring mission deep into Germany, maintaining a precise 60-foot altitude using spotlights beneath the aircraft. Your flight follows in their historic footsteps, taking in iconic landmarks such as Chatsworth House, Mam Tor, and Ladybower Reservoir in the Derwent Valley, where RAF crews trained for the famous Dambusters mission. Soar above breathtaking landscapes while connecting with one of aviation’s most iconic wartime stories, an unforgettable experience for two.
