| SCENIC BIPLANE & GLIDER RIDES |
ACADIA IS NO ORDINARY PLACE SO WHY SETTLE FOR AN ORDINARY PLANE RIDE?
View Acadia National Park, area lighthouses and the rugged rock-bound shores of Mount Desert Island from the open cockpit of our beautiful two passenger BIPLANE -or- “soar like an eagle” in our popular two passenger GLIDER. You have a choice of either bringing a companion to share the experience, or, if you prefer, you can actually fly either of the aircraft accompanied by a licensed commercial instructor pilot (no experience necessary). Whether you choose the romance and adventure of our open cockpit BIPLANE or the shear exhilaration of silent, effortless flight in our two passenger GLIDER, you are sure to transform an ordinary day into an extraordinary "experience of a lifetime."
Sounds exciting? YOU BET IT IS!!
