Hi Captain Halliday,
We have some incredible news! Your entry soared above the rest, and you have officially been chosen as one of our three lucky winners for the Ultimate Pacific Airshow® Gold Coast Experience.
Here is a look at your ultimate prize package:
As it turned out out, the performer with whom I was schedule to fly was former RAAF pilot and Red Bull air race champion Matt Hall.
Join me for a mini trip report that might included unexpected twists and turns…
Stomach churning highs and lows…
And a high G, edge of your seat ending.
