Airshow Hero Extreme Challenge Experience From North West Aerobatics
Can you be a Airshow Hero? Warning – This is a physically demanding, high adrenaline experience flight that will take you to the full capabilities of our unlimited category extra aircraft. You will be subjected to extreme positive & negative G-Forces and high rotational manoeuvres – It is not for the faint hearted. Participants must be in good health.
Description
Your experience begins with a thorough safety briefing where your instructor will teach you how to cope with high g forces. Your body will feel up to 7 times its normal weight. Without effective coping strategies, the blood draining towards your feet can lead to blackout & loss of consciousness.
You will then board our Extra aircraft, one of the world’s premier display & competition aerobatic machines & complete 5 of the most demanding airshow figures:
Torque Roll – The NWA signature figure starts with full power 210mph, 7g pull to a vertical climb whilst performing continuous rolls. Our speed will eventually decay & we will fall backwards though the sky whilst still rolling.
Mulleroid – The classic airshow opener & extremely challenging to fly. Another max power, high speed, high g pull to a vertical climb whilst rolling. At the top of the climb the aircraft will resemble a frisbee as we transition to an accelerated flat spin to return to our starting altitude.(aka the Maverick spin).
Ruade – from the French language ‘kick from an ass’. Using gyroscopics to play with physics the aircraft is placed into a 45 degree climb on it’s side (known as knife edge flight) & then tumbled nose over tail.
Outside Loop – the most physically demanding manoeuvre, you will be subjected to high negative ‘g’ loads as the aircraft is pushed upside down around a loop in the sky.
Flicker Finish – we’ll leave this one as a surprise…
Completing all 5 figures will earn you a place on the Airshow Hero Wall of Fame & the right to wear a coveted Airshow Hero patch.
If you would like to record your experience for prosperity we can offer you a High Definition edited video of your flight which you will be able to download, share with your friends & keep your memories forever.
