Information About Henstridge Airfield
Henstridge Airfield, a bustling centre for pilots, aviation students, and the public, is a place of constant activity and excitement. It hosts various events throughout the year, from vintage car and plane days to car boot sales and charity events. But its history is just as thrilling. It served as a Fleet Air Arm training airfield during World War II, known as HMS Dipper. Construction began in 1941, and it was finally commissioned in April 1943. Home to Seafires, Spitfires, Typhoons, and Masters, it was a key training ground until the war's end. Notably, a section of the main runway was transformed into an aircraft carrier deck with an arrestor wire system for pilot training in deck landings!

Terms and Conditions for Henstridge Airfield
Once you order a voucher, it will be dispatched by one of our agency partners by e-voucher or by post, depending on which you choose when you checkout.
Vouchers are valid until the expiry date shown on your Voucher (typically 10-12 months).
In most cases, once you activate your voucher you will be sent the instructions to redeem the voucher directly with the airfield or operator. Because flying experiences (other than simulators) can only take place in suitable/ safe weather conditions, you must be prepared to be flexible on your activity date. If the agent or operator cancels your experience date, they will inform you as soon as possible and do their very best to offer an alternative date or location. Once a specific date has been booked, you will automatically become bound by the terms and conditions that the individual operator may have. This does not affect your statutory rights.
Whilst every effort is made to ensure the descriptions contained on our products are a true reflection of the experience, these do not form part of a contract. If on contacting the operator you feel that the activity taking place no longer accurately represents the activity purchased, the relevant agent will exchange the voucher or refund the purchase price.
