Flying the Tiger Moth over the Harbour was genuinely the most alive I've ever felt. I've since done 11 more flights and I'm not stopping anytime soon.

The Blue Mountains route at sunrise is not optional — it is life-changing. APEX has the best fleet, the best routes, and honestly the best people.

I came in with zero aviation experience. APEX made it completely accessible. Two years later I have my PPL and I'm leading group flights. Incredible community.
