Yarra Valley Tiger Moth Aerobatic Flight - 30 Minutes
Highlights & inclusions
What you can expect
Take to the skies above the Yarra Valley in a beautifully restored 1943 de Havilland Tiger Moth, an open cockpit biplane flight of approximately 30 minutes departing from the aerodrome at Yering. Your pilot starts with a safety briefing before you are fitted out with a flying helmet, goggles, headset and leather jacket, so allow 60 minutes for the full experience.
Once airborne, the biplane turns out over the valley and drops low to follow the twists and turns of the Yarra River towards Healesville, with vineyards, farmland and the ridgelines of the Yarra Ranges spread out below. The open cockpit makes it feel wonderfully immediate, with the wind rushing past and views in every direction. To finish, your pilot climbs to a safe altitude for a set of classic aerobatics, rolling through loops, barrel rolls and wingovers before returning to the aerodrome. Dress warmly and wear closed shoes, and bring a camera if you can keep a firm hold of it.
