Now, this is an experience of a lifetime, something you will never forget! Standing on a wing - yes you read correctly and flying through the air, may have you questioning your decisions and leave your stomach in knots, but the view and adrenaline rush is something out of this world. This amazing experience will see you learning the skill of wing walking at Leeds East Airport, the former RAF Church Fenton base which is situated between Leeds and York. You will be airborne on a plane at speeds of up to 135mph whilst strapped to the wing of a biplane, so you will need to be taught a number of different things before you take off. One of the first things you learn will be hand signals. Due to the height and speed, this makes it difficult to talk, so hand signals are at high importance when it comes to communicating with the pilot. You will then go through exactly what you can expect whilst you are wing walking in the skies above Yorkshire.
