High Flight

High Flight

Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of earth
And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings;
Sunward I've climbed, and joined the tumbling mirth
Of sun-split clouds - and done a hundred things
You have not dreamed of - wheeled and soared and swung
High in the sunlit silence. Hov'ring there
I've chased the shouting wind along, and flung
My eager craft through footless halls of air.
Up, up the long delirious, burning blue,
I've topped the windswept heights with easy grace
Where never lark, or even eagle flew -
And, while with silent lifting mind I've trod
The high untresspassed sanctity of space,
Put out my hand and touched the face of God.

 
  Pilot Officer Gillespie Magee
No 412 squadron, RCAF
Killed 11 December 1941

Passenger Video Now Available

Video flight footage is now being offered for any passenger who would like to keep a remembrance of their flight to take home to enjoy and share with others.

We will film you during your flight and capture your facial expressions during takeoff, landing and various manuevers during the flight. These will then be edited into a short movie and combined with stock footage of the Stearman.

Cost is an additional $30.00 and should be specified when you book your flight.

Montrose Wing & Wheels Show 2009

I displayed N5000V at the MTJ air fair on Sept 18-19, 2009 and they had a very nice turnout. Many vintage aircraft were on display and in the air during the event including the Stearman, a North American B-25, a North American P-51D, the CAF Grumman TBM Avenger and 2 North American AT-6 Texans.

The new on-board video system was also put to the test and the footage turned out great. Look for a compilation video to be added to the "Media" section shortly.

On-Board Camera System

I installed an on-board camera system in the Stearman now to take video of passemgers while they are enjoying the open cockpit experience.

These videos can be downloaded and edited and put on a flash drive or DVD in .avi format to remember your flight, and to share with others your experience.
