Feature in Australian Flying - Open cockpit Stearman takes off in Bunbury WA

April 21, 2026

We’re incredibly proud to share that Open Air Adventure Flights has been featured in Australian Flying - one of Australia’s leading aviation publications.

👉 Open-cockpit Stearman flights take off in Bunbury

This feature marks a really special moment for us.

After months of waiting, working behind the scenes, and pushing through delays, to now see our story shared on a national platform… it’s something we don’t take for granted.

A Dream Taking Flight

Our journey with Winnie - our 1941 Boeing Stearman - has been anything but straightforward.

There were moments of uncertainty.
Long days.
And plenty of patience required.

But this feature is a reminder of why we started.

To bring something truly different to Bunbury.
To give people the chance to experience flying the way it used to be - raw, open, and unforgettable.

More Than Just a Flight

Open Air Adventure Flights isn’t just about getting from A to B.

It’s about:

The wind in your face
The sound of the radial engine
The feeling of stepping back in time

It’s about creating moments people will never forget.

And seeing that vision recognised by an aviation publication like Australian Flying means the world to us.

What’s Next

This is just the beginning.

We’re excited to share that this is only the start of our journey with Australian Flying, with plans already in place for a more in-depth feature in an upcoming publication.

With our official launch now behind us, we’re looking forward to continuing to share Winnie with more people and creating unforgettable experiences in the skies over Bunbury and the South West.
