Fly in a North American P-51D Mustang, a classic World War Two fighter aircraft.
Before strapping into the aircraft, enjoy a taste of nostalgia as you learn about the P-51D Mustang with an in-depth briefing. Your briefing includes an up-close, personal introduction to the stunning P-51D Mustang.
Once securely strapped in, you taxi out for takeoff. A final takeoff briefing and the throttle is eased forward bringing the Merlin engine to life with a roar. This is the same sound and experience that many young men heard as they took off on a mission over Northern Europe.
Now the adventure begins. The first objective is a high-speed attack run through the valleys of Spring Mountain National Park. Its a simulation of low-level strafing – you will experience the thrill of being low and fast in a World War Two fighter.
You pilot can, at your option, demonstrate some classic fighter manoeuvres - combat aileron rolls, barrel rolls, and loops.
Be prepared for the G’s as this agile aircraft twists and turns. Finally, we celebrate our victory with a high speed run across Flinders Peak.
It’s then back to Archerfield where over the airfield you’ll experience the classic fighter “buzz and break” manoeuvre before approach and landing.
Following a full de-brief, there will be an opportunity to take photos, discuss the flight with your pilot and ask as many questions as you like.
Allow 60 minutes at the venue. Your flight is for approximately 25 minutes and the briefing 15 minutes.
Available throughout the year on selected dates. Please note flying time in this old classic warbird is restricted due to its age.
Valid for one person.
The aerobatics are optional. You can choose to substitute the aerobatics for some glorious straight and level flight
