BIPLANE
FLIGHTS
Golden
Age Biplane Flying
Slip into
your flying helmet, climb up the wing and into the front seat of a 1942
WWII open cockpit biplane!
All our biplanes have the FAA
approved front seat modification to 32" across
that allows up to 2
medium-large people in the front cockpit. Very, very cozy!
The chocks are away, you can hear that huge radial engine roar, and you
are rolling down
the runway to
live the sights, sounds and smells of a once-in-a-lifetime aviation
experience.
Scenic
Flight - 20 minutes
Rates
Single Passenger -- $175.00

| Please note:
In our 1942 open cockpit
biplanes, the front passenger seat is a bench, and has a width
restriction of 32"across, (side-by-side seating). Very, very
cozy! For two passengers to fit, please take this into account,
and if you are considering adding in the aerobatic maneuvers, we
must strap a parachute on you as well (FAA rules) which takes a
bit more away from your allotted space. |
