TOWER PLANES
The Tower Planes has a tower structure and arms that rotate around the centre. This ride has interactive seats and performs decidedly thrilling movements.
The 8 two-seater cars reproduce jets and ‘fly’ in the sky, performing individual acrobatic evolutions, as each plane is controlled directly by the riders using a joystick. They can reach a height of 15m, and constantly rotating around the central tower at a rate of up to 8 revolutions/minute, can perform spins, dives and even one of the most exciting manoeuvres in aerobatic aerial flight: the barrel roll, i.e. 360° rotation of the aircraft on its longitudinal axis. The riders control them individually, deciding how thrilling the ride will be.
In the 15m version, the ride has a footprint of just 15.5m in diameter. Higher models upon request.
