Activity
Details
Take to the sky for an unbelievable flight in an incredible Extra 300 aerobatics aircraft.
Extra 300 - you sit in front of the aircraft, and your instructor sits in the back. Your activity starts with tea and coffee and then you are kitted out into flying suits with name badges, military bone-domes and gloves. Next it's time to get to know your aircraft with a safety brief at the aircraft in which you will be told about the cockpit controls. During your pre-flight briefing, lasting approximately an hour, you will cover a safety/parachute brief, how to fly the aircraft, aerobatics and an introduction to air combat manoeuvres. You will also be shown a short video. Moving onto your personal sortie pre-brief with instructor pilot, you will discuss your flight preferences. Out of the brief and into your parachute! After your out brief you are finally ready to take to the sky, indulging in 40 minutes (30 minutes airborne) in the aircraft. You sit in front of the aircraft, and your instructor sits in the back. Your time in the aircraft will include: - Formation take-off (two aircraft) - Formation close manoeuvring in the climb - Demonstration of effects of controls and aerobatics manoeuvres - Student `hands on stick´ time chance fly do basic aerobatics - Student tail chase with other aeroplane - Formation Loop (as desired by student) - Student flies return to base break to land (if conditions allow) After exiting the aircraft and your personal debrief with the instructor pilot, your experience will come to an end with your flight certificate being signed. Only now can you catch your breath.
Group Size: It'll just be you and the pilot. You will have approximately 3 to 4 hours at the venue with approximately 45 minutes in aircraft.
