NATG Hangar SNJ's with Airshow Smoke



WHAT THE MEDIA SAYS:


"The greatest rip-roaring, fire-breathing fun you can imagine!" "You can almost believe you are flying in 1944."
- Lt. Cmdr. Pat Quigley, THE AIRWINGER (Jacksonville, FL Naval Newspaper)


"...I pull the plane into a 4 G climb. My hand on the control stick is so heavy I can't lift it off my lap. I strain to keep from losing my vision as I start to black out. My enemy appears in front of me. A little tighter turn and he's in my sights. A squeeze of the trigger and I "smoke" him..." "[In the next battle] I have him in my sights, but I get a little eager. My plane stalls and I roll upside down. I recover, only to stall again and loose my advantage. [My opponent] gets me." "If this was real, I would go down in flames." "I am exhausted. My arm aches and I am drenched with perspiration." "The instructor makes a smooth landing, but I am weak-kneed as I climb from the cockpit and shake his hand. My foe has an ear-to-ear grin as we shake hands. What a day. What an experience."
- David Sommers, THE SAGINAW NEWS (Saginaw, MI)

Saginaw News (Front Page)

"North American Top-Gun offers the Walter Mitty in you a chance to experience aerial combat - the way it was in 'the big one'."
- Chuck Stewart, AIR PROGRESS WARBIRDS INTERNATIONAL

1945 AT-6D

"A mile up in the blue Florida sky, the engine snarl deepens as we nose into a gentle dive. Slowly we start to pull up. And up. And up. I look to the side and see another plane, a twin of the one that's carrying me. Both machines are standing on their tails. The propellers are spinning too fast to see. The other plane seems to be magically suspended with no visible means of support. We continue the loop, majestically arching onto our backs, then roaring down toward the earth before pulling out to level flight again. I keep saying the same thing over and over: 'This is so cool!'"
- Steve Millburg, SOUTHERN LIVING

1944 Paint Scheme:  USS Wake Island

"...thank you for the spectacular day..." "The experience was so much more than what was advertised! You lived up to the expectations and then some. Thanks to your top notch organization you made our dreams come true and gave us months of material for day dreaming. I would like to especially thank [our ground school instructor] for the classroom training. Your laid back style and in-depth knowledge made us feel like we could do what we were about to do. My hat is off to [our instructor pilots] for your professionalism and skill inside the planes. You two really made us enjoy the experience so much more with your encouragement and praise. Thank you, [NATG Staff], for organizing our experience and the information you provided at the end of the day. We are both considering going after our pilots licenses thanks to all of the comments and encouragement given during the day. Simply saying thank-you does not seem to be near enough for the time and fun we had..."

- Duncan McColl, NATG Customer


"It was just the greatest!!!!" "I know Ken will be watching that video over and over again for the rest of his life!!!"
- Margaret & Kenneth Morse, NATG Customers


"The planes were excellent in performance, beauty and comfort. Your instructors were outstanding teachers; positive, encouraging, suggesting and cajoling us to achieve better and better performances as the afternoon went on." "...it was a once-in-a-lifetime experience for each of us and we can think of no way in which that experience could be improved. The orientation, emphasis on safety, and the flying were superb."

- Whitelaw Wilson, NATG Customer

Running the South Carolina Coastline

"I can't begin to tell you what a thrill and great experience it was for me to take the Super Ace Package with your pilot, and what a superb pilot he is, a real pro. As an ex-Naval Pilot and many hours in the N2S, he took me through maneuvers I had never even tried. And to get back into the cockpit and fly again after 51 years is an experience I will never forget or dreamed would ever happen, thanks to my two wonderful daughters. It was a combined 75th B-Day and Father's Day gift. And the fabulous video - whow! "

- Merle E. Eichenfeld, NATG Customer
