A wonderful way to see - SPECTACULAR VIEWS! Wife and I flew, pilot Andrew was great. I tend to get a little nervous in an airplane, so I was worried I’d be too afraid to enjoy this, but once we were up over the blue ridge I was fine. Felt privileged to be able to see the beauty of this area from a fabulous vantage point. Only wish we were up longer! Would do this again. Thank you Andrew!

The flight - The trip was smooth and beautiful. With Cole the pilot, my brother, mother, father and I, we saw the parts of western N.C. that we have never seen before. It was truly breathtaking and would love to go again.
