If your flight is cancelled due to bad weather, Raystede will re-arrange your experience and communicate the new date with you. Please do not contact The Wing Walk Company or airfield directly.

The wing walker must wear tight fitted clothing (e.g. leggings) and laced trainers. Hoodies and jeans are prohibited. If the wing walker arrives and is not appropriately dressed, we will provide alternative clothing to ensure they meet the necessary requirements.

Goggles and earplugs are compulsory to wear and are provided by The Wing Walk Company on the day.

Fancy dress costumes and themed clothing can be worn, but must adhere to the guidelines in the above question.

Due to the wind and high speeds reached, unfortunately contact lenses are not recommended. Glasses can be worn and the Wing Walk Company can provide you with goggles that can be worn over most glasses.

Yes, you can wear a hijab. You need to ensure it is on tightly so it does not fall off. The Wing Walk Company can support you with this on the day.

Wing walking is an extreme experience; therefore, no aerobatics are permitted for a wing walkers' first flight. However, the wing walker will have the opportunity to tailor their flight with the pilot, to achieve maximum adrenaline, or a more relaxed flight, if they wish.

If you would like to return, you can do aerobatics during a second flight, which can be booked directly with The Wing Walk Company.

The wing walker can only communicate with the pilot by using hand signals, which are fully explained during the health and safety briefing.

Yes, if it is on a secure harness on the wing walker's wrist or chest only. This will be checked by the pilot before the flight.

Please note: Video equipment can fail on some occasions. Though it is very unlikely, if a video failure occurs (i.e. you have no footage of your wing walk) The Wing Walk Company will offer you a full refund of your video purchase only.

The Wing Walk Company or Raystede can not offer any other form of compensation when a failure to record your wing walk experience has occurred.

There is no restriction on the number of guests that can watch your flight. Guests are allowed to view your experience from a designated viewing area.
