Gold Reef City in Johannesburg launched a first-of-its-kind aeronautical ride, The High Flying Maverick, on March 17.
The ride combines motion and visual effects, as it takes riders on a journey that replicates the experiences and sensations of an acrobatic aeroplane flight, with loops, dives, banks and weightlessness.
It takes thrill-seekers eight metres above ground and ‘pilots’ experience acceleration of up to 4G, right side up and upside down.
The High Flying Maverick is exclusive to Thrill Rider ticket holders, with tickets costing R210 (€14.50) per person for full access to all rides and attractions within Gold Reef City. All riders must be at least 1,3 metres in height to be allowed access to the ride, reports IOL.
