Climb into the cockpit of the original ‘Pilot-Maker' a North American T-6 Texan that was used to train the Allied Forces in WWII over 70 years ago.
Discover the thrill of carrying out real aerobatic maneuvers including Aileron rolls, Loops, Cuban 8's, Reverse Cuban 8's, Barrel Rolls, Immelmans, Split-S, Wingovers, Cloverleaf and much, much more. This is not an amusement ride, your hands will actually be at the controls throughout the experience as you pilot a vintage plane in your very own aerial display.
On this unforgettable 30 minute flight, you'll receive a full flying lesson including a pre flight briefing on the effects of control. Then, once you're ready, it's time to step up the pace with some adrenaline fuelled aerobatic action. From mild to wild, this experience is tailored entirely to you. Step back in time to a bygone era with a high octane adventure to remember.
This is your chance to learn to fly in the legendary ‘Pilot-Maker' and carry out your own aerobatics display over the beautiful Florida countryside.
