Last Friday, the National Naval Aviation Museum launched two new MaxFlight 360 simulators—cutting-edge attractions delivering the ultimate flight experience with heart-pounding 360-degree pitch, roll, and spin motion.
These simulators feature custom-designed exterior wraps that pay homage to naval aviation. Designer Humberto Amaro crafted them to capture the essence of flight before visitors even step inside.
- “We wanted these wraps to tell a story and create excitement at first glance,” said Amaro. “They’re meant to connect with people’s love of aviation and their admiration for the Blue Angels, who inspire so many of us.”
Unique Designs
The first simulator features a bold design inspired by the legendary flight helmets of TOPGUN. The wrap showcases striking high-contrast stripes and a reflective visor that captures the dramatic glow of nighttime aircraft carrier operations. While the flight experience inside isn’t themed to the famous film, the cinematic exterior design makes this simulator an instant showstopper.
The second simulator celebrates the Blue Angels and their deep connection to Pensacola. This design mirrors an authentic Blue Angels pilot helmet, featuring a visor-style image of the precision flight team soaring over their home city. The artwork prominently displays the National Naval Aviation Museum itself, creating a meaningful connection between the attraction and its hometown roots.

The MaxFlight 360 simulators deliver an unparalleled adventure through patented full-motion technology. With complete 360-degree capabilities, these attractions provide an immersive experience appealing to aviation enthusiasts, thrill-seekers, and families alike. Height restrictions apply for safety.
