- Formation flying in high-performance aerobatic planes
- High-adrenaline thrills as your instructor puts the plane through her aerobatic paces
- Try some manoeuvres yourself, and tailchase the 'enemy' plane
- Includes full safety briefing and expert instruction
Do you feel the need, the need for speed? If straightforward flying seems a bit tame, try this Top Gun style close-manoeuvre flight. Your experience begins with an intensive flight and safety briefing from your ex-military instructor, before you get kitted out in a Top Gun-style flight suit and a parachute. Then take to the air for a 40 minute flight with your instructor in an Extra 300, a high-performance lightweight aircraft which is one of the premier aerobatic planes in the world. And you'll soon find out why, as you experience an airborne tactic demonstration and formation manoeuvres, accompanied by another Extra 300. Then you take the stick - your chance to try out some manoeuvres yourself and then tailchase the other plane. Make like Maverick as you get behind your 'enemy' and transmit 'gun guns guns', to see smoke billow from the aircraft in front. Back on the ground, there'll be a full debrief and presentation of certificates. Guaranteed thrills and fun.
