Climb into an open-cockpit biplane for an adrenaline-charged aerobatic experience over Sydney’s Northern Beaches. Loop and roll through the skies while pulling between +6 and -3 Gs, combining intense aerobatics with breathtaking coastal views.
Experience the thrill of flying in Sydney’s only open-cockpit aircraft as you depart Bankstown Airport and track toward the stunning Northern Beaches. From the moment you become airborne, you’ll feel the wind rushing past as the open cockpit delivers a raw and immersive flying experience unlike anything else. As you climb to approximately 3,500-4,000 feet over Long Reef, the intensity builds. This experience features an intense grade aerobatic sequence, combining powerful manoeuvres with sweeping coastal views. With nothing between you and the sky, every loop, roll and change in direction is felt instantly, creating a visceral connection to the aircraft and the environment around you.
Your experience begins at the Red Baron Hangar, where you’ll be welcomed and checked in before suiting up in a pilot’s flight suit and receiving a personalised one-on-one pre-flight briefing. Friends and family are welcome to relax in the lounge with complimentary tea and coffee while you prepare. Once strapped securely into the cockpit and fitted with a noise-cancelling headset, you’re ready for takeoff. In the air, your experienced pilot will guide you through exhilarating aerobatic manoeuvres including loops, barrel rolls and inverted flight, pulling G-forces ranging from +6 to -3. Each manoeuvre is explained as you go, offering insight into the techniques used in historic dogfights and classic aerobatics. The flight concludes with a return to Red Baron HQ, leaving you with an adrenaline-fuelled experience and memories that last long after touchdown.
One passenger per aircraft. If you are interested in flying with your wingman search our TOP GUN Experience for Two.
Friends and family are welcome to accompany you on the day. They can relax in our comfortable flight lounge while you enjoy the experience. They will join you for your mission briefing and photos as you walk out to the aircraft. Spectators can watch your departure and will be there to greet you on landing. After your flight, we’ll play your video on the big screen so you can relive the experience together.
Red Baron reserves the right to cancel or reschedule flights if conditions may affect the safety of the experience. Safety is always our highest priority. Weather conditions, aircraft serviceability and pilot availability may determine whether a flight can proceed at the scheduled date and time. If your flight is deemed unsuitable to operate, we will contact you to arrange an alternative time. Poor weather conditions may include, but are not limited to, low cloud cover, rain, adverse wind conditions, or forecast temperatures exceeding 33°C.
You will be suited up in a pilot flight suit, similar in specification to those used by the Australian and US Air Forces. We recommend wearing comfortable clothing suitable for the weather on the day. Enclosed shoes are required. Sunglasses and a hair tie for long hair are highly recommended.
This experience takes place in Bankstown Airport, NSW.
