TopGunMaverick is out now in theaters and on digital. To get a taste of the actors' training, Paramount Home Entertainment flew us out to San Diego to fly an Extra 300 stunt plane (thanks to the kind folks at Sky Combat Ace). More:
), I got to actually steer the stunt planes. Of course, a trained pilot was sitting in the back of the plane, fully prepared to take over if anything went awry, but I actually was directing the plane during these two-minute-long skirmishes in the sky, over 4,000 feet off the ground. It was an incredible experience, trying to track your opponent through the sky, maneuvering the plane, and getting behind in order to “shoot” the plane was thrilling and difficult.
What surprised me the most was how physically demanding the flight was. While the Extra 300 stunt planes can experience up to 10 Gs, our flight went around 5-6 Gs, which is still more than any roller coaster will offer. It was an impactful experience and one I felt the most during the low bombing run after all the flips and the most intense moments inside the plane. Once everything settles in, it’s both exhausting and exhilarating.
