The Experience
There's more to your day than just a plane ride! Well, even if that was all, it would be more than enough for most!
The pre-flight briefing is approximately 1 hour - partly in the briefing room at the Rockhampton Aero Club and then again once in the aircraft. There are some “must knows” and emergency systems in the rear cockpit of the aircraft which are outlined in the briefing, and the aerobatics and the whole intended flight is outlined to you – where you can then tailor the flight to suit yourself (within reason).
You are then suited up in a flying suit, helmet and mask (which allows full communication with the pilot). The communication is important as it allows for the passenger to cope with the G’s on the body and helps assure the most comfortable, yet thrill seeking ride of a lifetime.Tea and Coffee are provided and other drinks are available for purchase through the Aero Club. We can organize catering or morning tea/lunches for special occasions if requested.
