Tudor and Red Bull Flying Bulls DC-6B Flight Experience
Worn & Wound recounts a unique experience flying in a restored 1958 DC-6B aircraft with The Flying Bulls, a Red Bull aerobatic team, in partnership with Tudor. The event provided attendees with loaner Tudor watches and stunning aerial views of Manhattan.
Attendees were offered loaner Tudor watches including the Ranger in 36mm "Dune" and 39mm "Black", and the Black Bay 58 GMT on either a five-link bracelet or rubber strap.
The 1958 DC-6B aircraft is powered by four Pratt & Whitney engines, each with propellers measuring just over 13 feet in diameter.
The writer noted the surprisingly low noise level inside the cabin, wishing for more engine sound, and appreciated the Tudor T-fit clasp due to the warm conditions.
The event featured Red Bull memorabilia, including SailGP models, wing suits, a co-branded Tudor x Flying Bulls flight suit, and a Verstappen F1 car.
The CEO of The Flying Bulls and pilot for the flight was observed wearing a Tudor Black Bay GMT.
