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 the Scenic Red Centre of Australia.

You are welcome to choose any GA aircraft but I’m suggesting a Helicopter capable of at least 120knots for the event.
