Run by British Young Pilots

We are delighted to introduce the BYP Holiday Club at the RAF Museum Colindale — a unique 5-day aviation experience set amongst some of the most iconic aircraft in British aviation history. .
 
Throughout the week, students will build core piloting skills while taking part in a range of exciting enrichment experiences — from flying in close formation to captaining commercial airliners and even stepping into the role of a fast jet pilot.
 
Running Monday to Friday (9:00am–4:00pm), the programme blends interactive classroom learning with hands-on simulator flying, alongside opportunities to explore the museum and discover the role of aviation in Army operations. Students will also take part in aircraft model building, gaining insight into aircraft design and structure while creating something they can take home.
 
A key focus of the week is learning how to configure and use Microsoft Flight Simulator (MSFS) in a way that reflects real-world aviation operations — building confidence, technical skills, and a genuine connection to aviation.
 
Whether new to aviation or already passionate about flying, this is a rare opportunity to learn in an inspiring setting and experience the world of military and civilian aviation first-hand.We are delighted to introduce the BYP Holiday Club at the Army Flying Museum — a unique 5-day aviation experience set within the home of British Army aviation.
 
Students will learn how to:
  • Set up and operate aircraft in realistic scenarios, including configuring weather, navigation, and flight systems just like real pilots
  • Plan and fly your own routes, applying core navigation techniques and communicating using authentic ATC phraseology
  • Step into the cockpit of commercial airliners, managing advanced systems and flying with real-world procedures
  • Take on exciting flying challenges — from formation flying to fast jet handling — building confidence across a range of aircraft types
BYP actively encourages students to complement their ground-based learning with real flying experience. Subject to weather conditions and operational availability, we will be offering optional 30-minute flight experiences. These can be booked and paid for separately, with full details provided to enrolled participants.
 
Places are limited and expected to fill quickly.  
 
Students should bring their own lunches but water will be provided.
