We are offering TWO amazing opportunities to send your dad, spouse or someone special on the ride of a lifetime in our P-51C Mustang. Imagine giving this ultimate gift for Father’s Day, zooming through the skies at over 200 miles per hour! It’s a rare opportunity and one not to be missed.
On Saturday June 14th we will be at the Air Zoo, an aviation museum and indoor amusement park next to the Kalamazoo-Battle Creek International Airport in Portage, Michigan where our flights will depart.
Then we’ll make our way over to Owosso, Michigan the following weekend to offer rides on Saturday June 21st and Sunday June 22nd at the Train Expo 2014 – Locomotives, Wings and Wheels. You can also find us there with our RISE ABOVE Traveling Exhibit!
Your experience will include a backseat ride in our P-51C Mustang for a 30-minute flight with a certified vintage aircraft pilot, giving you a unique perspective on what this aircraft meant during the time it was used in combat in WWII.
Our Tuskegee Airmen aircraft – the P-51C Mustang that is the hallmark of the CAF Red Tail Squadron – is a magnificent piece of flying history. Not only will your heart leap at the distinct sound of the Rolls Royce engine, but you will be stepping back in time to an era when the hard-working Tuskegee Airmen dared to RISE ABOVE adversity in order to fight for our freedoms. Learn how this particular aircraft was born, lived and was resurrected to serve as a tool to spread the message of the Tuskegee Airmen. Come excited, leave inspired!
Give the gift that’s sure to be the experience of a lifetime! To find out more about how to purchase your flight, contact LaVone Kay at 888-928-0188 or email info@redtail.org. Flight times are limited so contact us soon to reserve your spot!
