After the difficult task of shortlisting the many applicants, the team are currently interviewing and auditioning potential wingwalkers to join them for the 2012 display season. We will keep you posted!
The World’s only formation wingwalking display team is seeking a new recruit to dance on their wings as they loop through the skies at airshows across Europe!!
The Breitling Wingwalkers have an amazing job opening for a new member to join their team and be trained to become a professional wingwalker. This an exciting yet challenging role, as the art of wingwalking involves climbing around an aircraft in flight and performing handstands on the wing as they loop above thousands of spectators looking up in awe.
The team perform over 90 displays each year at events throughout the UK, across Europe and beyond. In the past 12 months they have displayed at shows in China, Venice, Barcelona and Switzerland to name only a few.
“An enthusiastic, hard-working team player is sought for this amazing opportunity. A background in fitness is ideal to perform against the immense wind pressures experienced when flying at speeds of up to 130mph, as is the ability to continue smiling at the crowd below when it starts raining!”
Vic Norman, Team Leader.
The person offered the position will receive full training in the art of wingwalking - no previous wingwalking experience required!
Due to the nature of wingwalking and the safety harnesses, professional wingwalkers can not be taller than 5ft 5” or weigh more than 8 and a half stone.
Candidates currently being interviewed for the position.
If you would like to interview a member of the team or obtain more details/photographs please contact Sarah Tanner – sarah@aerosuperbatics.com 01285 831 774

The world’s most popular aerobatics team, Gloucestershire-based AeroSuperBatics Ltd, has today announced a deal to extend and expand its backing from Breitling, the prestigious Swiss watch manufacturer, which will now last until the end of the 2013 season.
The new sponsorship package, announced by AeroSuperBatics’ founder and chief pilot, Vic Norman, means the popular Breitling Wingwalkers, until now a two-aircraft team, will in future be able to perform as a four-aircraft line-up at leading events like The Goodwood Festival of Speed and the British Grand Prix.
“Interest in wingwalking has never been higher,” says Mr Norman, “so we’re happy to have this chance to expand. We’re also delighted to have an even closer relationship with Breitling. Everyone knows how relevant their fine products are to good pilots and great aircraft. This deal means we can perform as a bigger team, but also do more shows in a season when we run as two teams. It’s the perfect situation.”
Mr Norman says the Breitling Wingwalkers will now be able to meet more requests for displays in fast-expanding areas in Southern Europe, India and Asia. “We’ll be able to perform for audiences we haven’t met before,” he says, “and that will help deliver extra value to our sponsor. It's an exciting time."
