About this tour
Launch from Bankstown Airport in an Extra 330LX—a nimble aerobatic aircraft built for serious manoeuvres—and climb hard toward Sydney's Northern Beaches. Descend to 500 feet for a coastal run past Palm Beach, scanning for whales and dolphins, then climb to 2,500 feet to execute the Extreme PLUS sequence: aggressive loops, rolls, and sustained G-force stunts that rival military fast-jet training. Twenty-five minutes of relentless, unfiltered flying.
Highlights
- Low-level 500-foot coastal run past Northern Beaches
- Spot whales and dolphins from the cockpit
- Eight G-force aerobatic manoeuvres at 2,500 feet
- Carbon-fibre composite airframe engineered for extreme stress
- Private pilot briefing and in-flight narration
- Photo opportunity at Bankstown Airport
What to expect
You'll board the Extra 330LX at Bankstown, receive a safety briefing, then strap into the rear seat. The climb is steep and immediate—the nickname "the Rocket" fits. Over the Northern Beaches, the aircraft descends to 500 feet; expect wind noise, a clear view of the coast, and real wildlife sightings. At altitude, the pilot executes the sequence: sustained turns, inverted flying, spirals, and dives that pin you to your seat with up to 8G. It's physically intense and exhilarating, not smooth or gentle. The entire flight runs 25 minutes.
