What happens on the day
Strap in, throttle up, and take to the skies in a legendary WWII-era T-6 Warbird!
Your high-flying adventure begins at the American Airpower Museum where you'll meet an FAA-certified pilot before slipping into an iconic T-6 Warbird. Nicknamed the “Pilot Maker”, the T-6 was used to train pilots of the United States Army Air Forces (USAAF), United States Navy, Royal Air Force, and other air forces during World War II and into the 1970s.
Unleash your inner aviator as you climb into the cockpit and settle carefully into your chute and bucket seat. With a flip of the ignition switch, watch as the propeller begins to turn and the engine roars into life. Feel the G-forces as your expert pilot swoops and soars across the sky. Plus, you'll enjoy a bird's eye view of Long Island along the way!
