• You will take part in a pre-flight inspection; the history of the aircraft will be a highlight of your tour.
•After being strapped into the front cockpit, you will don a cloth flying helmet and goggles. Your pilot will talk to you on the intercom while taxiing and throughout the flight to make sure you understand what is happening throughout each stage of flight, and to ensure that you are having a great experience.
•Once on the runway, your pilot will advance the throttle and you'll soon be experiencing what it was like to fly during the 1930's and 1940's! As you accelerate down the runway, the tail of the aircraft will lift, and you will enjoy the thrill of one of the greatest adventures of your life! At Vintage Aviation, we pride ourselves on professionalism and perfection. Thank you for visiting our site and please contact us if we can be of assistance in any way.
