As co-pilot you'll help defend Newcastle in a simulated maritime strike against shipping targets off the coast using realistic RAAF style tactical manoeuvring. Just like the land strike you will be briefed on likely threats ingress tactics, attack profiles, weapon choice and egress manoeuvring required to avoid falling victim to enemy gunnery.
Incorporating airshow aerobatics as well as a medium level transit to the coast, this represents the cream of the Air Action single aircraft missions.
On arrival you'll be greeted by our host and directed to our briefing room. Here your pilot will provide a full military style brief and safety instructions for your Maritime Strike Mission. We'll then suit you up in your pilot uniform and helmet.
Now you'll strap in to your fighter jet and be guided through the start procedures - feel the awe as the jet engine spools up and the adventure begins. Complete the checklist items and taxi out to the runway to prepare for take off. Then 4000 pounds of jet thrust will launch you into the atmosphere. With speeds of up to 800 km per hour the L-39 is the sleekest and most modern jet fighter conducting adventure flights in Australia.
Once up in the air you will climb to the manoeuvring area up to an altitude of 7000ft. You will commence with "G" warm-up manoeuvres then move on to live the high performance of the L-39 Fighter. You are the co-pilot and your flight is both interactive and customised and you can even change the flight profile while you're airborne.
