My misses got me a stunt ride in a chipmonk out at Jandakot, year before last for my b'day, it was sh*t hot! Not a long enough ride though, 12 minutes out to the stunt flying area, above Cockburn Sound, 6 minutes stunt flying, 12 minutes to fly back to base. For a single prop, you'll pull a few G's which get's your bowel's moving!!!

Get your PPLs with Aerobatic ratings and you can earn yourself a 1 hr aerobatic flight solo for $120 (C152) I think.

Of course that would be highly illegal, if you care

As a PPL pilot you can only share the costs of the flight not charge people for the flight. A CPL on the other hand can charge.

But yes, If anybody is interested, I have my Restricted and almost have my aero endorsment if you are game

I used to do aeronautics at school and i got to go on an aerobatics flight. Was awesome. They do provide you with sick bags and i almost needed it doing the loop. Got the guy to pull out before i yacked. But the rest of the stunts were awesome. All the stunts that I did forced me into the seat so i never got to experience the zero-g's.... that probaly sounds more fun.

Negative G's are almost guranteed to make you yack. I have been in a Spin during my training and came out in Negative G inverted 45Deg Dive where i had to push down to pull up if you get my drift and I just about yacked everywhere, It feels like your eyes are going to fall out of their sockets. It was fun with an instructor of thousands of hours sitting next to me, however if it happened to me without that experience sitting beside me to grab the yoke, it probably would have stopped my flying all together.

I wouldn't mind doing a little advertisement using the Tiger Moth and fly "Perth WRX Forum" banner on the 26th

Provided I have tailwheel endorsement...

Aerobatics in a 152?? Not exactly invigorating. Go the low wing config for that extra buzz. Nothin like dropping a wing in a stall and falling into a spin dive. Now that's fun.

Hey should look into some glider action as well. Used to glide out of Moora. Doing loops and banks with no engine is a real mind bender!!
