  Hot Air Ballooning  
   

"Once you have tasted flight, you will forever walk this earth with your eyes turned skywards.
For there you have been, and there you will long to return."

Leonardo da Vinci

The unique experience of hot air ballooning is, essentially a rather elegant, eccentric adventure in space and time, and promises an excitement all of its own. Hover at tree-top height for a chat with or a wave to a local farmer as you go. Or, if you wish, and conditions permit, your pilot can take you to soar high among the clouds.

  Gliding  
   

South Africa is fantastic gliding country. The hot, sunny, high-veld produces fantastic thermals in summer and the escarpment and Cape Mountains produce excellent wave, usually but not exclusively in winter. (How convenient is that?) And, of course, all year there is great ridge soaring in the mountainous and coastal areas.

 
           
           
           
 

  Paragliding  
   

To fly on the winds has been one of man's most coveted ambitions throughout history. The 20th century has, to a large extent, realised that ambition. However, the simplicity of flight has always eluded man, that is until now. Like no other aviation sport, Paragliding easily combines the excitement of flight with simple and cost-free preparation. To fly a Paraglider is a thrill beyond belief, and will give you many hours of enjoyment beyond your wildest imagination. Finally, a fun adventure sport has arrived that does not require the participant to be a superman.

"Go where you have never gone before!"

THUNDER CITY - THE ULTIMATE FAST JET FLIGHT EXPERIENCE!

Based alongside Cape Town international airport, Thunder City offers viewing opportunity as well as flights in these incredible machines. 

This unique aviation experience is all encompassing.  You will need to allocate about 4 hours at Thunder City.  On arrival, you will be fitted with a flight suit and helmet.  You will undergo full helmet (oxygen and communications) and seat ejector training.  Then you will plan your preferred sortie (flight) with the pilot, before have a pre-flight seat strap-in, in the jet of your choice.  For your fast jet flight experience, choose one of the following 3 ex-combat jets.

THE ENGLISH ELECTRIC LIGHTNING
Thunder City operates the world's only twin-engined two-seater (side-by-side) supersonic interceptor, the English Electric Lightning. This amazing aircraft is powered by two Rolls Royce Avon 302 turbojets.

This aircraft is the creme-de-la-creme of fighter jets.  The Lightning still holds a number of world climb-to-altitude records and is known for its vertical climb performance, capable of a speed of Mach 2.2 (1500mph), and an initial climb rate of 50,000 ft/min.

BAe BUCCANEER
The British Aerospace Buccaneers are only flown from Thunder City, Cape Town.  This tandem two-seater aggressor is designed for low-level, high-speed attack.  Powered by two Rolls Royce Spey non-afterburning bypass turbofans, these awesome machines perform just below the speed of sound at low altitude.

HAWKER HUNTER
The Hawker Hunter was originally designed as a superior air fighter which, due to it's versatility, was easily adapted for air to ground attack and reconnaissance flights.  It is an exceptionally agile two-seater air combat trainer.

ThunderCity have 2 two-seater Hunters that can be used for training, aerobatics, low flying and general flying.  Powered by the Avon 122 series turbojet, this immaculate aircraft allows you to experience high 'g' adrenalin performance, like you have never felt before.
