Upon arrival at Red Baron Head Quarters, Bankstown, you will climb into a flight suit and prepare to board. Your pilot will strap you securely into the open air cockpit of the Pitts Special S2A aerobatic bi-plane and fasten your headphones and flight helmet. There will be plenty of time for your family and friends to take photographs of you as you prepare for your flight. You'll be able to hear all the calls to air traffic control and speak to your pilot through the intercom.
Once airborne 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 maneuvers 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 maneuver as you go through it. Once you're comfortable with the basics you'll move onto some combination maneuvers; things like a Roll Off The Top, a half loop followed by a half roll and a Split S, the reverse of the Roll off the Top a half roll followed by a half loop. This may be followed by Cuban Eights and reverse Cuban Eights, which are three-dimensional figure eights. You'll experience G forces of anywhere between +6G and -3G, alternatively being pushed into your seat or pulled hard against your harness. After a couple of spins to shake things out your pilot will put all these elements together into an adrenaline inducing sequence of the type used in competition, and while aerobatic maneuvers are all fun and games today don't forget they developed out of the serious business of WWI, where fighter pilots like Baron Von Richtoffen and other flying aces performed these complicated aerial moves to avoid being shot down in deadly dog fights.

You will then be transported to the launch site where you may help with the launch, or stand back and take pictures. In the early morning light you will drift by the array of parks and gardens that make Melbourne the world's most livable city. As the city comes to life you will look down on some of the city's iconic venues like the MCG (Melbourne Cricket Ground), Melbourne Park and Albert Park racetrack.

Depends on the winds and you may fly over the CBD, which is laid out in a large rectangular grid like pattern on the northern banks of the Yarra River. Or you may head over the inner suburbs, parks and gardens to discover why Victoria is labeled the Garden State.

One of the great joys of ballooning is its tranquility as you float with the breeze, feeling absolutely no sensation of movement. You have become one with the wind... you are moving with it... and therefore you have become a part of a complex weather system that is ever changing. Go on, join us for a hot air balloon flight over Australia's capital city - Canberra. You will meet about half an hour before sunrise (you will be advised of the meeting time when you re-confirm your flight) as the early morning is when the air is most stable and the winds are calm, ensuring a tranquil flight. After a short flight briefing, you will be transported to an appropriate launch site where you are welcome to help with the inflation of the balloons, or stand back and take photographs. Once aloft, passengers are rewarded with stunning views of Canberra - sights include the lake, the Parliamentary Triangle and our magnificent capital city planned by Walter Burley Griffin. A personalized Flight Certificate is given to each passenger during a traditional champagne celebration, which rounds off a fabulous morning. From start to finish, the Canberra hot air balloon adventure takes about 3 hours, and the experience is terrific dinner conversation for the rest of your life! Balloon flights are weather dependent, and for safety reasons, you will not fly when it is wet, foggy or too windy. Winner: Australian Travel and Tourism Awards 2006 - Adventure Tourism
