Would you dare to do a Wing Walk for charity?

Highland Hospice is appealing for daredevils to take part in a fundraising Wing Walk in aid of the charity.

It involves being on the top wing of a Boeing Stearman biplane mid-flight in Cirencester on September 19.

A spokesman for the charity said: "Flown by one of AeroSuperBatics wing-walking display pilots, you will take to the skies on the top wing of a Boeing Stearman biplane and experience an exciting series of fly-pasts, zoom climbs, steep dives and banks in front of the family and friends you bring along on the day.

"Before you taxi across the beautiful airfield ready for take-off you can expect to be overwhelmed with excitement from the roar of the 450hp engine and the propeller in front of you hitting speeds of 760mph.

"Your adrenaline will hit new heights as the aircraft builds momentum for lift off!

"Feel the sense of freedom as you fly through the air, taking in the stunning views surrounding the airfield."

Participants must raise at least £800, be over 18 years old, under 6ft 2ins tall, light than 14 stone and "physically fit".
