Sydney Harbour Scenic Flight with Aerobatics

It's best seat in the house of the best view in the world! Let us show you the city, Sydney Opera House and Harbour Bridge from the front seat of this adrenaline inducing, open-cockpit bi-plane and you'll even get a chance to do a loop and roll before you head home.

Bankstown, Sydney.

Bankstown Sydney New South Wales

This is a 45 minute flight

Each plane carries one passenger and one pilot. Spectators are able to view Red Baron flights from the foreshores of Sydney Harbour or from the coastline alongside the Eastern and Northern Beaches. Red Baron HQ has comfortable facilities for family and friends to await your return.

All passengers must be in good physical health, be less than 190cm tall and weigh less than 105kg. These limitations are necessary due to the physical restrictions in the front seat of the aircraft. Passengers must be over the age of 14yrs to fly; those aged under 18, must have parental consent.

Upon your arrival at Red Baron HQ, Bankstown, you will climb into a flight-suit and prepare to board. Your pilot will strap you securely into the open-air cockpit of the Pitts Special S2A aerobatic bi-plane and fasten your headphones and flight helmet. There will be plenty of time for your family and friends to take photographs of you as you prepare for your flight. Once you are secure, your pilot will prepare the plane for take off. You will be able to hear all the calls to air traffic control and speak to your pilot through the intercom. You will take off from Bankstown Airport and climb over the outer suburbs of Sydney to reach a cruising altitude of 1500ft. You'll soar over the sprawling Olympic site at Homebush Bay then circle the north-western suburbs of Hornsby and St Ives. Once granted clearance to Sydney Harbour you'll tour the city, taking in a bird's eye view of iconic landmarks like the Sydney Opera House and Harbour Bridge. You can wave at the Prime Minister at Kirribilli, fly higher than the eagles at Taronga Park Zoo and salute the sailors on Garden Island. It's the best seat in the house for the best view in the world! You might also get a chance to check out Rose Bay and the world famous Bondi Beach, before heading north over Middle Harbour, the Spit Bridge and Manly as you follow the coastline to Long Reef. This is where things get really exciting as you pull out all stops with some adrenaline inducing aerobatics; try a loop and a roll to give you a view of the world from a completely different perspective. This is what the Pitts is made for and your pilot will give you a taste of the G-Forces Baron Manfred Von Richtoffen himself may have experienced during air combat. You'll head back home over Mona Vale where you may catch a glimpse of the spectacular Baha'i temple. Landing back at Red Baron HQ you'll be hard pressed to stop smiling for the rest of the day and we hope it is an experience you will remember for the rest of your life.
