Join the Coulson Crew in a journey through aviation history via our two unique VIP experiences. Witness firsthand the majesty of the Mars and gain insights into the aircraft’s storied past and its role in aerial firefighting.
This experience will consist of a detailed walk around the airplane and participation in the daily inspection with the maintenance team.
Once signed off for the day, this experience will allow a small group to stay onboard the aircraft for a 40 minute taxi around Sproat Lake, at both low and high speeds.
There will be several opportunities for photos and all participants will be provided with an authentic Martin Mars flight suit.
This is for our hardcore aviation enthusiasts who dream of getting behind the controls of a 100,000 pound, 10,000 horsepower behemoth.
This experience will allow a select group of people to participate in a half day ground school session to learn about the systems and emergency procedures of the aircraft, followed by a detailed daily inspection, and end with a journey around Sproat Lake.
