You can say that again.

I certainly never in a million years thought I would ever get a chance to fly a 1930s Tiger Moth bi-plane. I still can't believe I did although just for a few minutes.

I am still as high as a kite from that.

I'll bet you are. Were you flying it with a co pilot or on your own, I didn't realise you could fly planes. It's one of those once in a lifetime experiences that'll stay with you forever. Really pleased that you enjoyed it and got the chance to experience it.
