Less than one week to go until Noosa Concours!

Next Saturday, 18 July, Hastings Street will transform into one of Australia's most prestigious motoring showcases β€” and it's completely free to attend.

Among the collection of luxury vehicles on display, you'll find the Brabham Anniversary Collection.

Celebrating 60 years since Sir Jack Brabham's unforgettable 1966 Formula 1 World Championship victory, the display will feature two historic Brabham race cars from the private collection of Sunshine Coast Jet Centre and Flight Options founder, Steve Padgett OAM, including one driven by Sir Jack during the 1967 Formula 2 season.

Steve and Sir Jack shared a passion for aviation and motorsport, and after meeting at Bankstown Airport, they forged a lifelong friendship, making this display even more meaningful.

Whether you're a passionate motorsport enthusiast or simply looking for an incredible day out in Noosa, this is a rare opportunity to get up close to some of Australia's most significant racing cars alongside an extraordinary collection of classic and luxury vehicles.

Being a great airline pilot is about more than flying.

Our Multi-Crew Cooperation (MCC) Course students arrive with extensive flying experience. But until now, they've largely operated as single-pilot decision makers.

The first step of the MCC course isn't learning new flying techniques. It's learning how to operate as part of a professional airline crew.

Students learn how to communicate effectively, work as a team, manage human factors risks, make decisions under pressure and apply the principles of Crew Resource Management. They do all of this while considering the many people who contribute to an airline operation, from ground staff and air traffic controllers to dispatch teams, cabin crew and sometimes even unruly passengers.

Because airline flying isn't just about flying an aircraft. It's about managing information, mitigating risk and responding to unexpected challenges as a team.

Keen to know more? Get in touch today and enquire about our MCC course dates.

We're proud to support SunnyKids at the 2026 Travis Schultz Noosa Winemakers Lunch as a Gold Sponsor, helping raise vital funds to support vulnerable children and families across our region.

This year's event will be held on Saturday 18 July, coinciding with the Noosa Concours, making it a standout day on Hastings Street.

Alongside our sponsorship, we've also donated two unique aviation experiences to help drive fundraising on the day:

✈️ An Airbus A320 Flight Simulator Experience for two, valued at $1,500.

⛳️ A private chartered flight for four to the award-winning Bonville Golf Resort, valued at $16,500.

The successful bidder for our charter experience will enjoy a seamless private jet journey from Sunshine Coast Jet Centre to Coffs Harbour, with private ground transfers to Bonville Golf Resort. Guests will play 18 holes at one of Australia's most celebrated courses, enjoy lunch overlooking the course at the Bonville Brasserie, and return home the same day on their private aircraft.

Every dollar raised helps SunnyKids continue providing practical support, safety and opportunities for local children and families who need it most.

We’re proud to play a small part in supporting such an important cause and look forward to an outstanding day on Saturday 18 July.

When the horizon disappears, your training takes over.

A Multi-Engine Instrument Rating isn't just another box to tick on your licence. It's the qualification that teaches you to operate confidently and safely under Instrument Flight Rules (IFR), navigating cloud, reduced visibility and complex airspace with precision.

At Flight Options, you'll train in both our FRASCA Seminole simulator and Piper PA-44 Seminole, developing the skills used by professional pilots every day. From instrument approaches and holding patterns to IFR departures, arrivals and emergency procedures, you'll learn how to manage the aircraft when outside visual references are no longer available.

If you're ready to take your flying to the next level, the Multi-Engine Instrument Rating is one of the most valuable investments you can make in your aviation career.

Contact us to learn more or secure your place.

Swap winter jackets for whale watching in the sunshine. 🐳🌞

While much of Australia reaches for an extra layer, the Whitsundays come alive in winter with warm days, crystal-clear waters and some of the region's most spectacular experiences.

Witness the annual migration of humpback whales through the Whitsundays, explore Whitehaven Beach and the surrounding islands, play a round of golf at the world-renowned Hamilton Island Golf Club , or just relax by the pool with a cocktail.

Getting there is easy with a private charter.

Private charters help you avoid long airport wait times, inconvenient schedules and the crowds of commercial flights. Instead, it can be just you, your best friends and family, and one of our luxury jets.

Your tropical winter escape starts the moment you step on board.
