You are correct Keiren. I was lucky enough to be on the flight today - it was definently worth it. The weather was magnificent - we tracked north over Parramatta, Hornsby, and then to Woy Woy, down the coast down to the harbour, and then back the same direction. Thanks to the nice people at Aeropelican for the flight, it was fabulous.

The rest of the show was good - I came in from the north so those signs directing us was very helpful.

Sarah, you tracked directly overhead my house at Mona Vale at around 1500-2000ft, you would have had a spectacular view, the beaches and ocean looked great on such a beautiful sunny day. Does the BAe 3102 have one seat either side of the aisle ? and how many passengers ?

The view was amazing. I was in a middle seat so didn't get the best pictures but I enjoyed just taking it all in.

Seat config is 1-2 - One seat on the left, 2 on the right. Total of 19 passengers all up. Hopefully they do the flights again in the next show - they were great value considering what is charged for many scenic flights over the city.

Hi all

Came back again today, when the weather cleared up much better and there was more happening, such as the departure of the Cessna Dragonfly and the Jetcar being dusted off. The following are my photos over the two days.

That's about it! Would have been much more enjoyable for me if I didn't have to duck off to work, but other than that, Danny, thank you and your staff for your efforts and investment into these exhibitions, please know I had a great time and I'll be at the next one you want to run.

Excellent photos Maikha - awesome stuff!

I'd share mine but their's nothing that hasn't already been seen. I too had a great time at the show (yesterday) and will make sure I'm on that Aeropelican Scenic Flight next time I think
