Definitely a 5-star time! I remember my first ride in a Waco 40 years ago so when I saw the signs I knew I had to take my 13yo son. He was not quite sure at first but loved it; seeing his ear-to-ear grin while climbing out surely had to be what my mom saw after my first trip. My son is now asking about getting a pilot's license. Lee was super friendly and knowledgeable. His very easy manner in the way he explained what to expect and patiently answered all our questions inspired confidence. He was a great tour-guide in the air - pointing out all kinds of stuff my son would never have noticed. We opted for the video, it was excellent - a great way to share this adventure with the grandparents and the rest of the family around the world. We will be back for an aerobatic ride and to bring my younger son for his ride.
I arranged a ride for my wife on her birthday. From the booking process, all the way to the day she flew, Lee answered any and all questions I threw at him. On the day of the flight he walked my wife through everything that was going to happen so that she was comfortable with the whole process. I was able to take pictures of the plane and of Lee and my wife before take off to capture that special moment. Lee is literally one of the nicest and funniest guys you'll ever meet. I felt like I knew him for years. Do yourself a favor and purchase the video package, you won't regret it. Worth every penny!
WOW!! What a wonderful experience!! My amazing husband surprised me with this adventure for my birthday this year. By far one of the best gifts ever!! To experience the fresh air and amazing views in a WWII biplane no less, was just incredible!!nAnd of course, any adventure like this requires a skilled pilot......and Lee is absolutely the best of the best!! He is a fantastic pilot and guide, who is incredibly talented at flying AND entertaining! I felt completely safe with Lee, who explained everything to me as we flew. We had incredible, clear views over Fredericksburg, but I have to say, my favorite part was the insanely exhilarating aerial maneuvers. I never knew how awesome flying could be. We did barrel rolls, loops, spins, and hammerheads!! The most fun I've ever had on a plane for sure!!nSo if you're considering this, don't hesitate or think anymore!! Just book it.....you will not be disappointed!!!nThe plane and pilot are too incredible to pass up!!!nThank you Lee!!!!!
Helmet & Goggles is over the top awesome. I bought my 91 year old father an hour biplane ride for Christmas. We had to wait until the temperature warmed up so he took his ride in June. Lee was awesome. He took such great care of my father and talked about the ride for weeks. I'd recommend a ride to anyone.
I gave my husband this adventure for his birthday. He continues to rave about the trip and the once in a lifetime experience. Not only did he fly in a vintage aircraft, but Lee Fox, retired United Airlines pilot, gave him the safest and most exciting ride ever. Highly recommend Helmet & Goggles for the adventurous and even not so adventurous.
