30 MINUTE TOP GUN" FLIGHT

OUR MOST POPULAR EXPERIENCE

Our most popular ride. We will fly out of Omaka Airfield in the beautiful Marlborough wine growing region and take in some of the local scenery while you settle in and absorb the fact you are actually flying in a 1200 hp V-12 Warbird.

In no time at all you’ll be climbing over Cape Campbell as we prepare to demonstrate what Full Noise can really do. We’ll start with some aerobatics to get you used to some G forces before we experience some Top Gun manoeuvres that Maverick would be proud of! With the required fun level reached we will head home at low level and high speed past the white bluffs of Marlborough for a buzz and break into the pattern.
