We have been so busy with putting in place the next phase of Heritage Flight Simulation’s development that we have had very little time to post all the news.

We last said our bon voyage to the prototype HFS Spitfire Mk.IX cockpit in August 2020. After journeying by road and ship I collected her from Dublin in November. The Irish Light Aviation Society (ILAS) very kindly agreed to let me store her in their hangar near Wexford. I was finally able to fetch her at the end of last month and she is now installed at the new Heritage Flight Simulation facility in Blackwater. We look forward to seeing her run soon!
