Once airborne you’ll head west towards the foothills of the Great Dividing Range. Over St Mary’s- in the designated training area- you’ll climb to 3500ft-4000ft. You’ll start with some basic manoeuvres- like loops, barrel rolls, wingovers and hammer head turns- to get the feel of things. Your pilot may also treat you to some inverted flight- flying upside down- and to a hesitation roll- a four-point roll where you pause and fly straight ahead at each quarter turn! Your pilot will explain each manoeuvre as you go through it.

There were issues with the plane so they cancelled twice which is understandable. However, they did not offer a refund at first and were only offering a voucher good for 5 years….however, we will likely never be back. They did finally agree to just refund our money. They told me that I was, in an essence, lucky that I got a refund. If you can not fly because the plane is malfunctioning, I should get a refund. That is silly. I originally gave 3 stars, but the owner emailed me to please retract my review because they refunded. I am not giving 5 stars - that mysogyny is not appreciated.

Such an amazing flight, until you experience this for yourself you can never truly imagine how it feels! Felt completely safe the whole time and the team are very professional. Be that friend who can say they’ve done a loop in a plane!

The Pitts Special was so much fun, the flight from Bankstown Airport to the Northern Beaches really gives you the opportunity to appreciate being in an open cockpit.

The aerobatics over the beautiful Palm Beach was exhilarating, especially being upside down with nothing between you and the water. The cherry on top was flying 500ft along the coastline towards Manly.

I received my edited video today, I am so impressed with how professional it is, so make sure you purchase this,

I can't thank the team at Red Baron enough for such an incredible day, their customer service is 10/10 I can't fault a thing. Will definitely be back.

Top Gun 🔫 experience!! Unbelievable!!!!
I bought this amazing flight experience as a Birthday present/surprise for Myself and my partner. The Highly experienced pilots provided an amazing acrobatic flight experience! Flying next to my partner and seeing his smile was unbelievable. Dogfight bring it on!!! Flying through intense G forces the pilots knew how to dogfight chasing each other through the skies preforming aerobatic manoeuvres together, it was a mind blowing experience!! I Highly recommended this amazing package to all thrill seekers!! We
Loved it!!!! 😎🤍🔫🤩 thank you.

This was a surprise gift for my 70th birthday.
A fantastic experience.
Disclaimer : I don't suffer from any form of motion sickness.
I've been fortunate to have a son who is a pilot and have been with him doing basic aerobatics, (spins and loops) in both gliders and powered aircraft.
I was also privileged to be taken for a "jolly" in an F4 Phantom in the sixties.
The Pitts was several orders of magnitude more intense and the snap to finish amazing.
If you are into aviation and don't suffer from motion sickness this is an amazing experience.

Bought our daughter Sarah a 30th birthday present of a intense dogfight. We live in Perth and Sarah in Sydney. Out 2 sons from Brisbane were coming to stay in a BnB together for Sarah's birthday weekend and decided that they would do the same experience. The Red Baron crew were fantastic and swapped their schedules around to let us go one after the other.
Their professionalism in the way they go through the briefing and safety aspects makes this an excellent experience. Then the flying part is such a thrill. It is something you have to do at least once in your life.
Highly recommend this to anyone looking for an adrenalin rush.

It is an awesome experience, lovely views over western Sydney before the stunts come in to play. Very exciting and great fun, kind of like being on a roller coaster but you have no idea what is going to happen. Lachlan and Jared were very professional and friendly.

I purchased the aerobatics flight as a present for my Birthday. Due to weather conditions I had to be rescheduled but finally got to do it yesterday. From the moment we arrived we felt very welcome and was taken good care of. Once I had my initial induction, I received my flight jumpsuit and pretty much straight away went to the Pitts plane to make me familiar with the aircraft and go over some safety instructions. What can I say about the flight?? What a ride!! Better than any roller coaster!! By far the most adrenaline fuelled experience I have ever had!! First We had around a fifteen minute flight to the area where we could perform the acrobatics. The journey itself was brilliant alone as we got to see the whole city from a view not many people get to experience. When we finally arrived at our target destination the adrenaline well and truly began. Barrell rolls, loop the loops and vertical stalls were a few of the manoeuvres we performed which certainly made my stomach wonder what the hell was going on. It was an amazing experience which I will never forget and I would recommend this to anyone. Without a doubt I will be returning in the future to book myself in again in the Pitts special hot seat.

What a memorabile experience in the sky with the power to fly , turn, roll , to the left and right , loop and then join them all together with you in control of the manoeuvres (and pilot instructor leading the thrill).
Not for the weak stomach or hearts but a must do for all others.
