AirFest

Ever wonder what it felt like to cruise 3000 feet above the countryside in a P-51 looking for targets of opportunity? Or maybe you've always wanted to train for combat in a Korean War vintage LT-6. We have rides available. Live your dreams!

These rides usually sell out quickly, so RESERVE your ride in advance to guarantee your seat!

Rides will be available in the following aircraft.
