GROUND-ATTACK

ground attack.png

  • 1.5 Hour+ Experience, 45 Minute Flight Time 

  • Simulated low level bombing run

  • Speeds of up to 420 kmh

  • Medium to high g-forces (you control the intensity)

​

Experience the thrill of a lifetime in this warbird fighter trainer as you embark on a low level bombing run mission.

DETAILS

​

After your arrival at Bankstown airport, your ACES experience begins with a full briefing on all aspects of the flight, safety procedures, and your duties as a valued crew member in this simulated bombing mission. Once the briefing concludes you’ll strap yourself into the rear seat of this Yak 52 TW.

 

After take-off you’ll track towards your target. Experience the ground rush beneath you as you direct your pilot on this simulated bombing run on Warragamba dam. On the way to and from your target you must assist with the identification of enemy aircraft and SAM sites, which your pilot will avoid or engage with at your request using high-G combat maneuvers. Not sure if you can handle all the aerobatics? Not a problem: you will be in constant contact with your pilot and can customise the experience to suit your comfort level. 

 

This is a great experience and the perfect gift idea for any aviation fan or or that person in your life who ‘has everything’ and craves something truly different and unique.
