Re: Ayers Rock Scenic Flights
Are you saying helicopters are not aircraft! ![Thumb](https://www.pprune.org/images/smilies/thumbs.gif)
Seriously though the web link in the previous post is for a helicopter company. The only fixed wing operator at Ayers Rock is Ayers Rock Scenic Flights or if you are flying out of Alice try Murray Cossons.
Also Ayers Rock is 450km by road from Alice or approx 200NM by air. Many people think they are next to each other. If you stay in Alice for a few days get out amongst the Western MacDonnell Ranges, some stunning scenery out there.

Many many years ago when the rock belonged to Australia tin was chasing balloons over the area and the Olgas all the way past Giles.

Those were the days..... trying to get the C207 to climb to 4000ft on a 40 deg day so that you could do the scenic flight over Ayers Rock and the Olgas.
If your going to hire/charter an aircraft out of Alice Springs, start early and take the scenic route via Palm Valley and Kings Canyon... well worth the look.
