See Sydney Harbour from the best seat in the house and experience mild aerobatics over the Northern Beaches! Do and see it all in The Red Baron Open Cockpit Biplane, the Pitts Special.

 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 biplane. 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 departure. 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 harbour, 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! 

What is included?

• Access to the Red Baron Flight lounge
• Free tea and coffee are available for you and accompanying Family/Friends.
• Get suited up in a Pilots Flight uniform (flight suit)
• One-on-one flight briefing with your pilot
• Photo opportunities with the aircraft & friends/family
• Unrivalled views of Sydney and the Northern Beaches + head up the coast to see Palm Beach & Barrenjoey
• Optional Aerobatics at Palm Beach (experience manoeuvres like Loop the loops, Barrel rolls, wingovers, hammerheads and more)

• Flight time: 60 minutes

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. At Long Reef, you’ll drop to 500ft and skirt the peninsula up to Palm Beach and Broken Bay! Then climb back to 2500ft for a short aerobatics session. 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 Richthofen 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.
