DETAILS
​
Make no compromises and experience it all with the High-G mission. This flight will take you over Sydney's southern park-lands and will include ground targets, coastal flying, and aerial maneuvers.
Before strapping into the rear seat you’ll receive a full briefing on the aircraft, all aspects of the flight, safety procedures, and your ACES mission objectives.
Once strapped in you’ll experience what it’s like to sit behind a 400hp radial engine and we’ll taxi for takeoff. After our final post-take-off briefing the real adventure begins. Our first objective is a high speed attack run on a radar site where we’ll simulate strafing.
Your second target is a reconnaissance objective over Sydney's southern coastline. Once completed you turn back and start your second attack run where you’ll get to experience what it’s like to fly low and fast in this warbird trainer.
Then it’s time to engage in some air-to-air combat and your pilot will take you through an aerobatic sequence based on classic combat maneuvers. As you roll and loop through the sky you’ll experience g-forces of +4 and -1 G. Not sure if you’re up for flying aerobatics? Not a problem: you will be in constant contact with your pilot and can customise the experience to suit your comfort level.
Once we return to Bankstown you’ll have the opportunity to take photos of yourself and the aircraft and will debrief the flight with your pilot.. There’s also an optional flight video available to purchase.
This is a great experience and the perfect gift idea for any aviation fan or that person in your life who ‘has everything’ and craves something truly different and unique.
