Steven Rennick

"Here is the photo of our family after our fun afternoon of flying with you on the 4th!"

Cindy Sultz

 
"Thanks for the great flight Saturday! Nothing compares. And it was great to initiate Jennifer and turn her upside down a few times!"
 
Ganesha Das


"Thank You Thank You! The joy goes beyond words."

Jennifer Brown

"What a way to celebrate a 21st Birthday. Thanks Chris for a great ride. Mason LOVED it."

Wendy Williamson

 
"My husband surprised me with this for my 51st birthday. This was by far the coolest thing I have ever done. Every time I think of it I start to smile. I loved the ride, I loved the 'barrel roll', and I loved the 'hammer head'. This was truly the experience of a life time. Thank you. I can't wait to ride again!!!!"

MaryAnn Williams
Beringer Vineyards

"I treated my son and myself to flights on 7/17/2010. We took the 40 min flight over the Napa Valley with each of us in a separate plane. I have been taking my sons to warbird air shows since they where old enough to appreciate these wonderful aircraft. The flight was fantastic and gave us an opportunity to get photos of each other enjoying the experience. This is truly what flying should be like. I am looking forward to doing this again."

"There are absolutely no words that can fully express the exhilaration and rush of adrenalin that I felt during my biplane ride with Chris. A definite "must-do" for anyone visiting the Sonoma Valley!"
John Ickes


"Been wanting to do this for an awfully long time. Finally walked in, signed up, put on my flying helmet, and mounted up in a biplane that was born one year before I was. The Wright Brothers only started flying 30 years before this plane was built."

"AWESOME! AWESOME! AWESOME! OK, It didn't have a bathroom, or cocktail service, but CAN you feel the wind in your face or fly upside down in a boring 747? I'M STILL SMILING A WEEK LATER AND COMING BACK TO FLY AGAIN! THANK YOU FOR ONE OF THE BEST EXPERIENCES EVER."


Alan Packman

"Dear Vintage Aircraft, 
Max and I haven't stopped talking about our biplane flight last month! It was the coolest thing we have ever done and certainly the highlight of Max's birthday weekend in wine country. Thanks so much for making it happen and for taking his birthday to new heights! Thanks again! Greg and Max
"

 


"Haven’t we all read the Peanuts books or watched the television specials that showed Snoopy fearlessly flying across the fields into enemy territory? I for one recall sitting in my bunk bed when my grandmother would babysit, and pretend I was Snoopy chasing the Red Baron across France. Ra-ta-ta-ta-tat!"

Ward takes his Dad on a biplane ride for his birthday.

"Sonoma Valley Airport is located at 23982 Arnold Drive in Sonoma, California. My wife and I visited this airport on our 10th anniversary. We were here to ride in the green and yellow open air biplane. We had a wonderful ride capped off with a few loops and barrel-rolls."


"We looked up things to do in Sonoma and this Vintage Aircraft Company caught our eye. We still had some cash from our wedding in the sock drawer and decided to take one of their flights. Originally we thought that we were going to be flying over the Golden Gate Bridge, but due to heavy fog in the Bay Area, our 45 minute flight flew over the vineyards of Sonoma and Napa Valley. Our pilot was the best ever, and gave us such a smooth ride." 

Ryan & Mindy, Utah

 

SOOO Great !!!
"I was able to get the excitement of flying in a 1940 Stearman Bi-Plane. Taking off with the fragrence of exhaust and the wind in your face... The roar of the engine, and incredible view of the region as we climbed for altitude. The feel of the G's as we executed Square rolls, Loops... fulfilled my dreams of living experiences I'd only imagined after seeing all those movies about flight. It left me reflecting about those eager pilots in WWI who flew in aircraft such as these,  with no protection except their determination and courage. The pilot touched down so cleanly ...you wouldn't know we had landed except you could feel the runway under the wheels...excellent pilot and very SUPER value !"

-- Bill S --

"I had the luck of taking a vacation with my wife to San Francisco and Sonoma. We actually took an open cockpit biplane ride! I highly recommend it - anyone coming that way in Sonoma and planning to take plane ride should go there: Vintage Aircraft (http://www.vintageaircraft.com). I highly recommend these folks!"

Yevgeny Ioffe, Boston, MA
