Simulator Rides

SpacePort’s simulators are among it’s most memorable attractions.

Formula One Simulator

Our F-1 race car is a new attraction to SpacePort. Did you know that an F-1 car can drive upside down indefinitely? Are you a quick and careful driver
or a wreck on the circuit? Now you can explore it all for yourself!


F-18 Top Gun Flight Simulator

In conjunction with Top Gun Flights, SpacePort offers two full motion F-18 fighter jet simulators. They feature fully interactive 360 degree motion on multiple axes, a 42" screen and realistic controls that let the pilot fly in any direction!

Morphis ESP Simulator

The Morphis is a moving eight-person scenario simulator in a space-age capsule, featuring the latest surround sound technology and incredibly realistic digital imagery. Choose from seven ride films, including:

  • The Canyon Coaster, an exciting roller coaster in outer space;
  • The Time Machine, surveying dinosaurs, ancient Egypt, and more;
  • A tour of the International Space Station with astronaut David Scott, leader of the Apollo 15 mission,
  • A tour inside the hardware of a computer to see how it works,
  • Dodge aliens and asteroids and save the day for your allies in a Star Warriors adventure.

FX2 Simulators

The FX2 simulator, seating up to two people, puts you and a friend right inside a video game. Chase through the universe as a star warrior, fly an old-fashioned biplane, save the world as Captain Rio, or pilot of one of Canada's Snowbird jets. Together, our two FX2 simulators offer a total of six simulations.

Ride Safety
Our simulator rides undergo rigorous daily safety inspections and regular preventative maintenance. Additionally, external inspectors regularly come in to ensure the safety of our rides. We have never had a safety problem emerge to jeopardize the safety (or fun) of a school group’s experience; we remain prepared to handle an emergency should one arise. Our staff is trained in first aid and emergency procedures. All of our rides are equipped with an easily accessible emergency stop button, should a student feel sick or scared during the simulation.
