A friend did it at the big aviation show (
) a year or two. He’s a lifelong aviation nut (aero eng degree, RAF - and therein lies a tale).
I know it was shockingly expensive but if you’ve got the money then death is inevitable.

Did he enjoy it?
I just figure experincing it would be something special (and yes aviation nut).
Go for it. I’m pretty sure when you’re up there with a massive grin on your face you won’t give a second thought to the ticket price.

Oh absolutely.
My “bucket list” included a JU-52 until, as I mentioned recently, a) I got into one in person and b) everyone died.

Friends of ours son just got accepted by BA. That’s cost him/them north of £120K so far so the Spitfire deal seems like a bargain.

Thing is, flying airliners is pretty much bus driving (yes, I know and I’d happily swap my current career for driving an Airbus) but a spitfire is well, you know…

I’m surprised you need confirmation. Do it before you can’t, worry about the experience after you have done it

Go for it but if you ever use ‘YOLO’ again I’m bribing the pilot to dump you out at 5000ft
I frequently see and hear them flying around as Solent airport is about 10 miles from me and would love to have a go.

Personally there are several train trips that I would like to do, including the Jungfrau Express, and the Ghan in Australia.
I would really like to do Roadburn in Tilburg, but at least next year there are three big things on in May, and I can only choose one. So the Desertfest London bill is very good and infinitely cheaper than the alternatives.

I’d love to travel on Ghan as well but this would be my dream rail trip.
Pretoria to Victoria falls then I’d travel on to the Okavango Delta for a safari. My bucket list items mainly revolve around seeing the wonders of nature from extremely luxurious surroundings
