  • Product code: NRA-325-30
The Experience: 

Embark on our “Noosa Tactical Flight" an aerial reconnaissance mission that melds the Sunshine Coast's awe-inspiring natural landscapes with layers of both Indigenous and military history.

Mission Briefing: Assemble at Maroochy River Airbase for departure. Upon lift-off, feel the aquatic runway fade as you ascend toward the heavens, tracking northwards for a strategic flyover of Mudjimba Island.

Objective Mt Coolum: Soar along the coastline, setting sights on the venerable Mt. Coolum, a natural landmark steeped in Dreamtime lore as Ninderry Mountain's adversary. Legend has it that the mountains were once human, their eternal feud shaping the landscape you see today.

Military Intel: As you traverse these skies, bear in mind that Sunshine Beach once served as a military training ground. It was such a key location that Japanese reconnaissance once scouted it for an airstrip, contemplating it as a potential linchpin in a grander strategy.

Objective Noosa River: Proceed over Noosa National Park, a lush paradise that transitions you from the ocean's edge to hinterland tranquility, before conducting an aerial sweep over the ethereal Noosa River—unchanged and preserved through millennia.

Exfil Route: Begin your return flight over the placid Lake Weyba, once a crucial territory in Indigenous stories about Bunyip, the water spirit. Pass expansive sugar cane fields and conduct your final flyby of the stoic Mt Ninderry.

Mission Culmination: Execute a precise water landing at Maroochy River Airbase. The mission clock is set at 45-50 minutes. Reconnaissance is restricted to a squad of two to three operatives with a combined weight limit of 200kg.

Your "Noosa Tactical Flight" offers more than a visual feast; it's a deeply enriching experience that acquaints you with the Sunshine Coast's diverse historical tapestry. Assemble your squad, lock in your objectives, and make this mission an unforgettable chapter in your life's story. Over and out.
