Welcome To Vintage Tiger Moth Joyflights

Take a step back in time as you climb aboard one of our award winning 1940's WWII Tiger Moths. You will look the part wearing our leather flying helmet, goggles, gloves and flying jacket as you feel the wind in your face and experience the freedom of open cockpit flying. Bring a friend and try a Tiger Moth formation flight. If you dare, try some WWII style aerial dog fighting. For the thrill seekers take a ride in the awesome Yak 52. Get ready for the speed, the G's and the adrenaline rush. Take the controls yourself and see what it's really like.
Based at the historic RAAF Williams Point Cook Airfield we specialise in scenic and aerobatic flights around Melbourne in our fleet of Tiger Moths and our Yak 52 Russian military aircraft.
Whether it's enjoying the stunning panoramic views of Melbourne and its sophisticated skyline or hanging by your harness as you experience the ultimate 3D rollercoaster ride, we can provide the total flight experience to suit your individual taste and budget.
Vintage Tiger Moth Joyflights is owned and operated by Garry Herne who offers rides in his Tiger Moths and Yak 52 aircraft in conjunction with the Point Cook Flying Club. Garry is a highly experienced international airline pilot and all flights are conducted with the highest degree of professionalism and safety.
Garry regularly gives low level aerobatic flying displays in the Tiger Moth at major airshows and for the RAAF Museum. No other joyflight operation in Australia has as many highly experienced aircrew as our business. Most of our pilots are current Airline Pilots and have many thousands of hours of experience from light aircraft and military aircraft through to heavy jet transport types. Vintage Tiger Moth Joyflights has been operating since 1998 and has completed over 3000 flights safely.
If you're a visitor to Melbourne or lived here all your life there's no better way to get your bearings and appreciate the sights around this beautiful city than by a flight in an open cockpit aircraft.

We can organize flights over the central business district, around the beaches of Port Phillip Bay or in fact, anywhere you want to go. We have a range of standard scenic routes to suit everybody's taste and budget.
For those who want more action, experience what it would have been like to dog fight like the Red Baron in WW1 and take the aerobatic option. From the front seat of the Tiger Moth you can experience the same sensations and excitement as a WW1 pilot experienced in his open cockpit bi-plane fighter more than 90 years ago.

You will spin, loop and roll through the sky in the ultimate roller coaster ride.

If the Tiger Moth is still too tame for you then we dare you to take a seat in the mighty Yak 52 and endure some extreme aerobatics.
We start off gently and slowly increase the tempo of the manoeuvres to build up your resistance so you can handle advanced aerobatics such as the inverted spin. Experience firsthand what it's like to do aerobatics as you take the controls yourself.
If this doesn't topple your gyros then nothing will.
