Details
Soar through the skies in a thrilling Extra 300, the aircraft equivalent to a F1 racing car!
Tail chase through the skies in an adrenalin-fuelled blast, where you get to go head to head with your opponent. Powered by a 300bhp Lycoming engine, the Extra 300 is an ultra light weight, state of the art, high technology display aircraft. During your thrilling flight you'll be able to take the controls and experience the manoeuvring capabilities of the 300, fly basic aerobatics and learn how to tail chase, if that wasn't enough you'll also be playing 'shoot the bandit' whilst airborne!
Your experience starts with refreshments on arrival before getting you kitted out in proper 'Top Gun' attire. A pre-flight briefing will then take place and two teams will be assembled before you take part in a practice session of flying, aerobatics and tail chase manoeuvres. You'll have the opportunity to take the controls of the Extra 300 to fly basic aerobatics and tail chase with another aeroplane using special gun and smoke effects. There will be a formation loop before going back to base for debriefing. The flight lasts approximately 40 minutes. You should expect to be at the venue for around 3-4 hours.
