Heart pounding and adrenalin flowing is what could the plan for the day when visiting seven of Australia’s most exciting adventures. From doing a nosedives in a stunt plane to swimming with sharks, there are adventures abound on  land, sea or air.

 

Aerobatic Flights

au-aerobatics-flight-perthStrap yourself in for the ride of your life. There isn’t a roller coaster in the world that will flip you, loop you or roll you like the pilot sitting next to you in the custom built aerobatic plane. This adventure will have you begging for more. This plane has only two seats, one for you and one for the pilot. The aerobatic plane will do nose dives toward the ground, show you what a high “G” force feels like and throw in a few upside down views of the land below.

Jet Fighter Flight

The suit has all of the military gear including fighter helmet and life support equipment.

Once you are strapped into the Jet Fighter plane and travelling at a speed of over 740kph, do not blink or you will miss the landscape scenes below. The jet is an ex-military aircraft and will provide you with the flight of your life.

 

Off Road Buggies

Off-road buggies are the way to go when in the mood for a land adventure full of excitement, speed and the feel of going air born. Full face helmet, overalls and strapped in with a 5 point harness, all that remains is the road or to be more specific, the off-road, ahead.

Consisting of three stages you will begin stage one by going eleven laps with an instructor riding with you to offer tips on controlling the buggies and to prime your adrenaline for the jumps. The final stage gives you eight laps of tight turns and the confidence to do those air born jumps. Stage three, you will go for three of the most heart-pumping laps of your life with a professional off-road driver.

 

Rally Driving
