A life changing experience you’ll spend 36 hours reliving the life of a B-17 World War II aviator. Imagine climbing into a B-17 aircraft and traveling back in time to 1944 about to embark on your final bombing mission over Nazi Germany. You’ll be transported back in time from the 7AM mission briefing through the amazing realism of the world’s most advanced flight simulation.
It’s 1944 and you’re on an authentic mission. You’ve been through the briefing where targets and casualties are anticipated. You feel the tension our fly boys felt as they contemplated the uncertainty of their fate.
The experience is so real that you’ll find yourself ducking as enemy fighters zip by mere feet from the nose of your plane. Your hair is literally blown back when the bomb doors open.
And then it’s time to strap on a parachute and board an authentic B-17 aircraft for a real flight. Fully immersed in 1944 you’re living the day of a real B-17 flyer. Your adrenaline is guaranteed to rush as you take off for your bombing run. The sights, sounds and even the smells of this extended flight make this a once in a lifetime adventure.
You won’t just understand what it’s like to be a WWII aviator you will actually be that aviator. You will know so much more about what our fathers and grandfathers lived through. For this moment, time will stand still.
