Exclusive: Recon Pilot Experience Las Vegas

Summary Description

This 3-hour adventure begins with a Las Vegas hotel pickup, then travel to the Henderson Executive Airport, approximately 13 miles from the Las Vegas strip. After a pilot meet and greet and a safety briefing to prepare for the flight, climb on board a state-of-the-art Extra 330LC aircraft, the world’s most advanced certified aerobatic airplane. 

With the professional fighter pilot at the controls, take off, soaring low and zooming over the beautiful mountains and valleys of the Mojave Desert. Check out the great view of the surrounding landscape, including the beautiful Las Vegas strip, from the desert sky above. Then get ready to experience a few basic aerobatic maneuvers, like the aileron roll, loop, barrel roll and hammerhead. It will feel like a roller coaster without the rails.

To end the flight, complete a military-style landing on the runway back at the airport. 

This unique fighter pilot experience is complete with a return trip to Las Vegas for a hotel drop-off.

Highlights
  • A professional pilot will take you through thrilling aerobatic maneuvers
  • Round-trip transfers from Vegas are included
