CoRporate flying days – case studies
We have flown thousands of guests over the years. Let’s hear from them.
The groups we work with range from 4 to 200 guests, and virtually any group size is possible.
Some of the clients we’ve worked with include Breitling, Mazda, Honeywell, Dyson, B&Q and Citi Group.
CITI GROUP
It’s hard to impress seasoned recipients of Corporate Entertainment, but International Investment Bank Citicorp managed it when they brought a group of clients to fly Ultimate High’s simulated air combat profile.
After a day spent chasing each other around the sky the organiser wrote to say “We had a fantastic day, everyone saying it was seamless with no-one bored at all. Three already want to come back and fly the Extra again – it’s just planes talk this morning, nothing else. I guarantee you will get other City people coming, it’s going round the market like wildfire this morning.”
“You have the most amazing collection of pilots who are a joy to fly with. I can’t think about anything else this morning”
Breitling
“The aircraft that performed for us were of the highest calibre and the personnel involved were more than hospitable to our guests. Those that were lucky enough to get a flight were made to feel extremely comfortable that they were in good hands, which allowed them to thoroughly enjoy their spin. Those on the ground were of great assistance in helping the schedule run smoothly and were superb hosts.”
“Thank you for a fantastic day”
Mazda
Mazda wanted to make a car launch ‘different and unique’ and asked Ultimate High to fly 30 female journalists from around Europe. Four Ultimate High aircraft were branded with Mazda logos and guests flew a variety of Top Gun pair sorties that were carefully tailored to the individual guests. The result? Mazda’s PR Director takes up the story…
“I just wanted to put in writing my thanks for the corporate day that we held with Ultimate High last week. It is not often that we find unique corporate events, usually somebody has ‘done it before’, but flying with Ultimate High was a first for everyone in our group, a true first. It is a credit to your style of instruction and briefing that even those who were wary the night before were suddenly incredibly enthusiastic before strapping into the aircraft – and the grins when they got back said it all! We could not have chosen a better activity or company for our day and it achieved everything that we set out to achieve – and then some!”
“The grins when they got back said it all”
B&Q
“B&Q puts on around four internal communication events aimed at 2,500 Store staff per year; each is themed according to the season and the message we are trying to get back to the stores.
Last year just a few days before an Event, we were unfortunately let down by one of participants, an Aerobatics display. Not having time to panic, we starting making calls to replace them.
The first company we called was Ultimate High, who immediately took on the challenge of organising an aerobatics solo display, sorting out the CAA licences within the few days available and putting on a great show, enjoyed by all the delegates. B&Q prides ourselves on our “Can Do spirit” and clearly here was a company that shared the same principles.
With that in mind the next event we organised was themed around Aviation and included a “pairs” aerobatics display each of the four days, combined with a commentary that picked up our themes linking our message with the display. I found the team at Ultimate High to be extremely professional and “happy to help” with whatever we requested. I am certain that we will be working with them in the very near future.”

Dyson
Renowned for their innovative approach, Dyson wanted to make the launch of a new product to their distributors – one that would make a massive impact. They arranged a four day event with Ultimate High where their distributors were flown in from all over Europe to receive training on the new product and to have aerobatic flights in Dyson branded aircraft. More than 200 people were flown over the event, with attendees receiving airborne footage of their flights and a professional photographer captured the images that summed up the event. The response from the organisers was as follows…
“With regards to the launch, what can we say except the whole event was simply exceptional! The response from our customers who attended has been, without exception, truly amazing. All were ‘blown away’ by the experience. We have been inundated with letters and e-mails following the event and just to give you a flavour…”
“Thank you from Dyson for what was the most superb, professionally run and unforgettable corporate event. Outstanding, when can I fly again?”
Honeywell
International avionics and aerospace giants Honeywell brought the senior members of their European offices together for a series of meetings in the UK and wanted an inspirational flying experience. They arranged to bring their directors to Ultimate High and were delighted with the results.
“The whole day exceeded expectations – I thought the briefing and instruction were excellent and most entertaining.”
“The best flying I have ever experienced!”
