Description
This 15 minute Top Gun Fighter Jet flight Simulator experience is for one person and guaranteed to raise your adrenaline and send chills down your spin. You will be kitted out in a military flying suit* and then choose your call-sign (“Maverick”, “Iceman” etc.) before heading to your aircraft. Your flying instructor will then guide you through a take-off and close formation flying, this is then followed by some aerobatic manoeuvres to acclimatise you to the g-force, and then you will be introduced to tail chasing and air combat against your opponent.
You will manoeuvre your aeroplane to get on the bad guy’s tail. Once you’re in a firing position, squeeze the trigger and if you’re successful in shooting down the bandit, then it’s an obligatory cheer of “yeehah, jester’s dead” and back to the airfield for a flyby of the tower, to head back for your debrief, on how good you were!

Designed by McDonnell Douglas (now part of Boeing – check out our Boeing 737 Simulator)
The F/A-18 Hornet was designed to be a highly versatile aircraft due to its avionics, cockpit displays, and excellent aerodynamic characteristics, with the ability to carry a wide variety of weapons. The aircraft can perform fighter escort, fleet air defence, suppression of enemy air defences, air interdiction, close air support, and aerial reconnaissance. Its versatility and reliability have proven it to be a valuable carrier asset.
