I TURNED 80 THIS YEAR!

So I'm retiring and the Fly by Wire ride ride operation at Paekakariki, near Wellington is for sale. The sale includes the right to build further rides in New Zealand and Australia with an Australian investor ready to go.

Jeremy Clarkson said of this FBW ride - "They've surpassed bungy" in this BBC video: https://youtu.be/dGIsRTPkFeQ

In 2019 we completely rebuilt the ride at a cost of $320,000, (a flood had destroyed it in 2003) but within a few months Covid had shut down tourism in NZ. Now the visitors are flooding back but I have to hand it to a younger person, (well, younger than 80!)

The basic annual fixed cost to run the ride is around $22,000 and that includes engineering certification, insurance and rent.

The capacity is six pilots per hour, if you fly 25 people in a day the revenue is $3500.00 FBW is operated by a single person and uses one litre of petrol per flight.

As the ride inventor, l understand all aspects of the ride system. Our engineering professionals are on hand with Fly by Wire certifying experience. With the 60m tower system, Fly by Wire can be installed in the airspace anywhere, over parking lots etc.
