  • 2nd choice: A bombardier seat Flight on FiFI!

This seat is often called the “Best-seat-in-the-house” and for good reason.   You are out in front of the pilots and surrounded by glass. It is easy to imagine the view of the target through the actual Norden bombsight or catch a glimpse of a Zero fighter swooping down toward you with guns blazing. FAA rules require the bombardier to remain seated since you are so close to the pilots.

  • 3rd Choice: One Day of Formula One Racing!

MX-5 Cup race car or Formula Skip Barber. Formula Skip Barber or MX-5 Cup race car. Can’t decide? Now you don’t have to. Sample both cars in a full day of activities. Experience 60 minutes of on-track action each in the open-wheel Formula Skip Barber and the Mazda Miata based MX-5 Cup race cars
