Rides Day assists us to find the next generation of Warbirds pilots. Warbirds Over Wanaka wants to get people into flying so one day some of them may be flying at our Airshows.
• The New Zealand Warbirds Association is keen to support any moves which might result in more pilots being interested in flying the older aircraft.
• The Sport Aircraft Association “looks forward to working with WOW and contributing to a successful event with more youngsters developing a desire to be involved in aviation.”
The Rides Day is for people who are keen to try flying - see how affordable it can be on Easter Monday. Local operators and visiting aircraft owners will be offering rides in many different aircraft. The Catalina will also be at the Airshow.
There is no entry fee to the airport and this Rides Day is a separate event to the Airshow. Operators will charge for flights, please book directly with the operator listed below. Arrive at the airport in good time – parking will be signposted. Please stay away from the main part of the airport, for safety reasons, as we take down marquees. The information kiosk at the Airshow will have more information.
PLEASE NOTE THERE WILL BE MORE AIRCRAFT ADDED TO THIS LIST IN COMING MONTHS
The following Rides Day aircraft are listed here. Please contact the operator directly and they will provide you with details on ride days and times, costs and maps on how to reach their aircraft.
