Seeing Sydney from the Air????

Hello.

Sorry if i am using the wrong thread for this question. I am heading off to Australia for a few weeks and during thoise three weeks it is my 1 year anniversary I am in the process of looking in what to do, i did look at sydney sea planes, a good way of seeing sydney from the air. Does anyone know of any place that does scenic flights around sydney for half the cost??

Do the seaplane ride, sod the cost, you only get one chance at some things.

For a cheaper view of the harbour ride on the Manley Ferry. But do that as well as the seaplane, not instead.

Sydney Aerobatic School

Why not try Sydney Aerobatic School based at Bankstown, they have a couple of Pitts S2's and used to fly out and round the harbour , over the bridge etc. Not sure if it's cheaper than the seaplane but you could at least chuck in a few aero's. If my memory serves me correctly from when I was out there they also had a SF 260 as well.
