Live the THRILL as you experience formation and aerobatic flight together. Have you ever wondered what it was like to be in a one-on-one aerial dogfight? You will be flying in close military-style formation, near enough to see the ear-to-ear smiles on each other's faces, then get ready as you chase each other down during aerial combat!

While aerobatic manoeuvres are all fun and games today, don't forget they developed out of the serious business of aerial combat, where fighter pilots perform these complicated aerial moves to avoid being shot down in dog fights. Experience it for yourself as you and your wingman take turns chasing each other through the skies.

Fly in the EXTREME Extra 330LX Stunt Plane (the only of its kind in Australia) and the classic Red Baron Open Cockpit Biplane, the Pitts Special.

YOUR MISSION BRIEF:

Upon your arrival at Red Baron Hangar, you will both be checked in by one of our friendly flight hosts. While you are getting ready any accompanying friends and family will relax in our comfortable flight lounge, enjoying complimentary tea & coffee. When ready for departure you both will climb into a pilot's flight-suits and prepare to board. You will then meet your pilots and join them for the essential pre-flight mission briefing. Once complete your pilots will strap you securely into the cockpit and fasten your headset.  

 There will be plenty of time for your family and friends to take photographs of you as you prepare for your flight. When you are secure, your pilot will prepare the plane for take-off. You'll be able to hear all the calls to air traffic control and speak to your pilot through the intercom.

Depart from Bankstown Airport with your wingman in a close military formation take off, tracking for Sydney Harbour, see the Opera House, the Harbour Bridge, Mosman, Rosebay and the Sydney Heads. Followed by a right turn to the stunning Northern Beaches and Long Reef Golf Course. Once over the coast, we will set up for the ultimate aerial dog fight over the Northern beaches of Sydney.  

Experience manoeuvres like Military style formation flying, Aerial dogfighting, Loop the Loop, Barrel rolls, Aileron rolls, Snap rolls, Spins, Hammerheads, Inverted flight and MORE!

On completion, you will break away for a more extreme individual aerobatics sequence. Once your individual aerobatics are complete you will rejoin the formation and head back to base for a formation landing.

 This unbelievable flight is the ultimate Thrill Seeker adventure for two.
