Another great weekend of Joy Fights with Mackay Tiger Moth Museum. Smooth flights for Luke and Michael on Saturday then Lyn, Angus, Kylie and Neils on Sunday. Making birthday memories, ticking off a bucket list, enjoying an open cockpit view of the Pioneer Vally, or all three, was in order this weekend.

Mackay Show day in 1957. I miss the old shows, just seems like a big amusement festival these days. (1957 BST.) colourised with AI.

Conrad got a nice surprise on his joy flight this morning - volunteer pilot Michael is an old work mate he hadn't seen for 30 years! The city, beaches and canefields look amazing in the crisp clear air. Julie was next and was even more ecstatic about the views during her special birthday flight. Duncan was next (sorry no photo), as a property developer he knows the district very well from 2D maps but he could really appreciate the 3rd dimension he saw in his 30-min joy flight. Stew and Ashton helped start the vintage Tiger Moth and see each of them safely away. Bookings www.mackaytiger.com.au or 4998 5677bh.

Coen was excited to experience the open cockpit of the vintage WW2 Tiger Moth again. He came back to complete his earlier flight which was cut short by the weather. Today volunteer pilot Michael had to dodge a shower or two, but the thrill of seeing the district's scenery over the coast and canefields was superb as usual. Tyrone's 30-minute flight was just as exciting, soaring over the highlights of the coast and the city with so many sporting activities in progress. Terry and Mark were the friendly ground crew.

Mark loved his birthday present from Tanya this morning. His joy flight in the iconic yellow Tiger Moth took him over the city, harbour, beaches and Pioneer Valley. The view is spectacular from the open cockpit and valley looks so fresh and green at present! Volunteer pilot Ross added to the excitement as they circled their home near Walkerston. Jason and Ross M were ground crew. Bookings and gift vouchers www.mackaytiger.com.au or ph 4998 5677bh.

In the crisp morning air on ANZAC Day, two vintage DH82A Tiger Moths headed off for the day's first flight of remembrance over Mackay's dawn services and the awakening city. Our volunteers at the Tiger Moth Museum, led by President Terry, are privileged to join the community in remembering those who gave their lives and all who served to preserve our freedom. Lest we forget.

26/04/2026

What an honour to conduct the ANZAC Day flypasts in Mackay's iconic Tiger Moth aircraft, both built during WW2 to train young Air Force pilots. At dawn we flew over the city and neighbouring areas, then joined the community by flying over the services at Walkerston, Mackay and Sarina. Our crew held their customary BBQ at the hangar as we remembered and gave thanks to those who served our country to protect the freedom we enjoy. Lest we forget.

Charlie got our big weekend of joy flights underway, with an unforgettable birthday thrill, seeing his Walkerston home from the air. Jordan was next, ticking one off the bucket list before settling in to married life, and George just loved his cruise around the city's magic scenery at 1000ft. The perfect weather held for Jeff on Sunday to enjoy buzzing over his home near Dumbleton. Andrew was next, following years of cajoling by our volunteer Ian, and absolutely loved the open cockpit experience. Allan had put up with lots of weather cancellations but it was worth the wait - his timing today was perfect to see the Pioneer Valley at its best, with the family there to enjoy the excitement. Stew and George led the ground crew team. Bookings www.mackaytiger.com.au or 4998 5677bh.
