Fly Sydney’s only open cockpit aircraft from Bankstown Airport over iconic Sydney Harbour before continuing along the coastline toward the Northern Beaches. Those feeling brave can opt in to mild aerobatics over Long Reef before returning to base. Duration: 90 min (50 min flight time)
Experience Sydney from a truly unique perspective in the city’s only open cockpit aircraft. Departing from Bankstown Airport, this scenic adventure takes you toward one of the world’s most spectacular harbours: Sydney Harbour. With the cockpit open to the elements, you’ll enjoy uninterrupted views of the city as you fly past iconic landmarks, including the Sydney Opera House, Harbour Bridge and surrounds. From the harbour, the flight continues along the coastline toward Sydney’s Northern Beaches. Soaring above the ocean with nothing but open air around you, this experience delivers a raw and immersive style of flying that few aircraft can offer, combining world-class scenery with the thrill of open cockpit aviation.
For those seeking an added rush, the experience includes the option to participate in a mild-grade aerobatic sequence over Long Reef. Gentle loops, rolls and increased G-forces offer an exciting taste of aerobatics, all delivered at a level designed to remain comfortable and enjoyable. Participation is entirely optional, allowing you to tailor the flight to your own sense of adventure. Flying in the iconic Red Baron Pitts Special biplane, this experience blends classic aviation, stunning coastal scenery and optional adrenaline into one unforgettable flight. From hearing live air traffic calls through the headset to feeling the wind rush past in the open cockpit, it’s an extraordinary way to see Sydney in one of the best seats in the sky.

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.

That's 10% of the Australian population! When we started 'doing' experiences in 2001, Facebook didn't exist; the iPod had just been invented; John Howard was Prime Minister; and Destiny's Child were popular (yikes!). We've been at this business of experiences for quite a while, so put your trust in us to show you a good time.
We want you to have the most enriching experience possible, so if this means swapping your jet boat experience for wine tasting then we've got you covered. Simply exchange online or contact our Customer Experience Team and we'll do the work for you.
We understand life gets busy, which is why all vouchers and gift cards purchased have a 5-year expiry. The only exception to our expiry terms is if the experience has already been booked in.

We know the trust consumers place in ratings and reviews is tied directly to authenticity. That's why we use Bazaarvoice. We believe that reviews should represent the genuine, unbiased, and transparent opinion about the author's experience with a product or service. Reviews are not altered in any way by anyone other than the original author — including corrections for spelling or grammar. Reviews are not filtered, edited, or deleted simply because they are negative or are lower-rated.
