Electrifying speeds combine with high speed thrills on this ultimate date with adventure. Take the controls of an awesome SIAI Marchetti SF260 and perform a simulated strike mission under the guidance of former fighter pilots.
Smash through the sky in a lean, mean fighting machine and discover the unbelievable thrill of flying an aircraft that can accelerate to 260mph and pull +6 forces in a heartbeat. You're in control all the way as you carry out up to 10 military training maneuvers including lead and lag pursuits, vertical and oblique turns and displacement rolls. When your training's complete you'll put it into glorious action as you carry out your very own mission. Do you have what it takes to succeed and win the title of ‘top gun'?
This is as close as it gets to being a real fighter pilot.
You'll learn basic Air Combat Maneuvers in a program that lasts a full day. The experience includes two missions with 10 dogfights. You'll use real military aircraft including the SIAI Marchetti SF260, under the guidance of licensed fighter pilot instructors. This extraordinary adventure provides the chance to experience the thrill and adrenalin of flying a light attack fighter in air-to-air combat. The only thing that is not real are the bullets. Fully briefed you will climb into the aircraft alongside your instructor and you will be in control of the aircraft as you engage in air to air dogfights. Every maneuver is recorded during your flight and the tapes are yours to keep.
Flying is weather dependent and there is also a risk of air sickness. If you are prone to motion sickness, this experience may not be for you.
Fighter Pilot experiences are available on pre-scheduled dates throughout the year. To secure your chosen dates it is recommended that you book well in advance.
