Fighter Pilots for a Day

$2,800 value

 

null

Suit up with Air Combat USA to learn the tactical maneuvers needed in air-to-air combat. After a briefing, guest pilots are secured into the aircraft alongside their instructor for the hands-on portion of the program. Although the instructor will perform the take-off and the landing, guest pilots will fly the aircraft 90% of the time, while they practice maneuvers and engage in dogfights. Register a hit during a dogfight and smoke will trail from the other aircraft! The whole experience will be recorded by four onboard cockpit cameras and will be yours to keep.
