Q: What happens if the weather is bad on the day of the flight?

A: If the weather is bad, they'll reschedule your flight for another day. They keep an eye on the forecasts and will let you know well in advance if changes are needed. Just make sure to provide a reliable contact number when you book!

Q: What should I wear for the flight?

A: Dress comfortably! It's best to wear layers since it can get a bit chilly up there. Closed-toe shoes are a must, and don’t forget your sunscreen! Sunglasses are also a good idea for the bright skies.

Incredible Private Scenic Tour of South Texas!

I just did the private scenic tour in the U-18 Navion and wow, it was amazing! The view of the Texas coastline was breathtaking. We flew over the USS Lexington and Corpus Christi, and the pilot let us take the controls for a bit. Totally worth every penny! I surprised my husband for his birthday and he was grinning the entire time.

Considering gifting the Scenic Tour Experience!

I'm thinking of getting this private scenic tour as a gift for my dad who loves planes. The idea of flying in a historic aircraft sounds epic! Just wondering, how long is the flight exactly? And do they give a good narrative about the sights?
