Aerobatic Warbird Flight, 30-35 minute - Hunter Valley
After arrival at the airport your RAAF trained fighter pilot will go through a pre-flight safety briefing and overview of your flight.
All of your senses will be stimulated the second the 10.2 Litre, 9 Cylinder supercharged radial engine roars to life.
Your "Reconnaissance Mission" is to take off from the Hunter Valley and conduct a tactical reconnaissance mission of the Newcastle or the Nelson Bay area. We’ll stay below radar coverage for most of the flight and ensure that if you live locally that get to see your home from a view unseen before. If you are still hungry for more we can look at some aerobatics such as loops, rolls, immelmans, cuban eights, and the ever graceful stall turn.
Whilst this adventure is not for the faint hearted, the flight is totally about your safety and comfort, so we can do as little or as much as you want - after all it’s your experience!
This warbird flight is approximately 30-35 minutes in duration, however please allow around an hour in total for this experience
