PLACES TO EAT IN BRIGHT

Cross Country Flight

Come on a flight that solo pilots travel across Australia (and the world), to try to bag for themselves. Cross Country flying is the art of riding thermals up to the clouds, before gliding to the next mountain peak to climb again.

After taking in some amazing views that not many people get to appreciate we have an exciting abseil right back to the ground.
