Kit out in the full flying regalia - flight suit, flight cap, goggles and safety gear. You are in for a beautiful flight in a unique aircraft.
Your friends are welcome to join you to take some shots prior to you boarding the aircraft. Boarding? Well, in this case it means getting onto the wing and into the open cockpit.
Once secured with a safety harness the biplane's radial engine fires up and your pilot taxis the plane ready for take-off.
With the breeze in your hair, the biplane reaches take-off speed and you'll be airborne ready to begin your adventure.
Tracking north along the coast to the Sea Cliff Bridge you can take in the views of the spectacular beaches and the magnificent escarpment. The bridge spans 665 metres and links the coastal villages of Stanwell Park and Coalcliff.
On the return leg, if you are feeling brave your pilot will ask if you'd like to try a loop the loop or two. Whatever your response, you'll have a smile on your face as wide as the Pacific Ocean when you return to base.

Could not have expected any more. We had the grandkids there to see Pop take off and they had a great time too. Checked out other planes in the hangar, got great photos with the team and aircraft, met the director of the company. Have received the DVD of the flight and got photos of the flight as a bonus.
