Embark on a one-of-a-kind sightseeing tour over Cocoa Beach when you climb aboard a historic open-cockpit biplane!
Get ready for the sightseeing experience of a lifetime when you climb aboard a historic Waco UPF-7 open-cockpit biplane. This 40-minute tour delivers all the fun of a scenic flight with the bonus of cruising through the skies like a 1940s flying ace.
On this tour, you can choose from three exciting routes:
1) The Kennedy Space Center Tour takes you over the visitor’s complex, where you’ll see NASA’s Rocket Garden and Atlantis Shuttle display. Then get a glimpse of the space shuttle runway and Vehicle Assembly Building and Launch pads.
2) The Extended Beach & Port Tour showcases the beauty of Cocoa Beach and Port Canaveral, adding on a low pass down the runway at Patrick AFB.
3) On the St. John’s River Eco-tour, you’ll fly over the meandering river system and Lake Poinsette, while keeping an eye out for egrets, eagles, alligators and airboats from above.
For all those daredevils out there, you can upgrade to an exciting aerobatic flight, where you’ll experience the kind of graceful loops and rolls you’ve seen at air shows.
No matter what options you choose, though, this Scenic Biplane Flight is a memory that will last forever!
The maximum combined weight for passengers is 500 lbs.
While there is no legal minimum age, the tour provider recommends no younger than 3 years of age for children accompanied by an adult. A child of normal stature for this age will fit safely in the seat belts and be tall enough to take in the view. The child must be able to wear a headset or earplugs due to engine noise. There is no maximum age, as long as you can get into and out of the cockpit. (It requires a little bit of flexibility).
You’ll be flying in a Waco UPF-7 open-cockpit biplane.
Yes, the biplane has an intercom system that allows two-way communication between the pilot and the passengers. Headsets are provided.
Yes! A camera with a wide-angle lens and strap is perfect. A camcorder is good as long as it is one of the smaller, handheld types.
