Group flights, Aussie style. Aussie Group Flights Team is the ultimate way to explore the world with your favourite people.
In this scenic heli flight, we will be flying over a few game parks in South Africa on the lookout for some wild life.
You are welcome to choose any GA aircraft but I’m suggesting a Helicopter capable of at least 120knots for the event.
Note: Even though there is a better chance of finding wild life in 2024, the scenery is still very beautiful and 2020 pilots should enjoy the flight.
Details to follow. Hope you can join us.
PLEASE NOTE: THIS INFORMATION IS FOR FLIGHT SIMULATION USE ONLY.
