I have been here twice.
First time I went wing walking which was an amazing experience! You're only in the air for about 10 minutes but it does feel longer. It was great fun but for me I'm not good with stinky fuel fumes, so by the end of my flight I didn't feel very well and was almost sick! But otherwise I really enjoyed it.
Today I went for the helicopter experience. This experience lasted about an hour. To start off with it was really good. We flew high above the clouds and the weather was good. There was a breeze though, so the helicopter felt a bit wobbly. I enjoyed my experience of flying the helicopter myself and flew over Leeds castle and to Bodium castle. Unfortunately I started to feel sick, so I got the pilot to fly us back.
The staff here both times I have been have been friendly and welcoming. It's been busy both times and there is plenty of space for spectators to wait and watch.

My son went on a tandem skydive from 12,000 feet with Yanos, who he said was amazing and very reassuring. My son loved it and said it was the most amazing adrenaline rush.

We did have to wait over 3 hours, so be prepared. There are numerous jumps on the day, and it's based on who registers first as to when you go up. There is a cafe on site which was great and we got to see other planes etc going up whilst waiting.

Made a quick little visit here after being at the Big Cat sanctuary, and wow, I got to see my favourite spitfire and see wing walking, which I have every intention to return and try😍

Amazing experience at the skydive centre! My partner completed her bucket list of a tandem skydive! The skydiver she dived with was brilliant and funny, I would highly recommend.
Nice place to have a coffee while I watched on in fear!

This was my first tandem skydive and it was simply exhilerating !
The staff at Skydive Headcorn are amazing, professional and they ran the event down to a tee. They're all super friendly with a fun outgoing sense of humour.
My instructor Chelsea was just fantastic - she gave clear instructions, made me feel super comfortable and made the whole experience worth while.
If you're considering your first skydive, then I'd recommend for your jump to be recorded. Full credit goes to my cameramen, Chad, ho was also just brilliant and captured priceless moments that I'll always be able to look back on.
Bring on my next jump !

Friendly small aerodrome. Quite a few fixed wing private planes, plus skydiving, wing walking and helicopter trips/lessons.

Has a small cafe, toilets and seating. Car park is rough, so be careful if raining heavily.

Thurston Helicopter flights from here are particularly good.

A wonderful and memorable WWII Battle of Britain Experience. Being able to see the WWII Spitfires, Hurricanes and Messerchmitt Dog fighting over the Kent landscape and with it being 80 years.
The RAF Red Arrows performance was awesome as always. Great to see the B-17 and Dakota flight.
The fence line ticket was well worth the money. Would have been nice to have had the info before hand in regards to where you would be for fence line/enclosure but a phone call to the staff a few days before helped.
The staff at Headcorn Airfield very helpful.

Would recommend and would return to view again even if the aircraft line up was the same. The Lancaster fly past was due on Sunday.

A beautiful place for a great, relaxing day out. Watching the spitfires taking off just gets better every time.

Fantastic place for viewing or photographing aircraft landing and taking off. Free parking available, toilets, cafe, bar, museum. Saturdays and Sunday’s are better more flow of aircraft. Local parachute school there too!

Enjoyable time watching small planes land and take off. Spoke to a couple of pilots who explained the things that went on with learning to fly. Then watched the sky divers appear through the clouds. Will go back again when they are doing wing walking displays. 100% worth a visit.

Fantastic day at the Battle of Britain Airshow, everything extremely well organised, there's not a bad seat in the house for this event. All synchronised to music and great commentary, hats off to the sound engineer Carl for putting that together to keep the crowd informed and entertained. 👍🏼👍🏼

Fantastic airshow. Well organised parking as well. Wherever you sit you get a good view. Even behind other people's chairs.

I go here every now and then to plane spot. Staff are always really kind and if you get bored you can just go to the museum down the road
