Take the Stick and Fly a Biplane

By Lois Friedland, About.com

Sky Thrills!
“Flying a Pitts S-2C is like driving a Formula 1 car in the sky.” swears Mike Blackstone, owner of Sky Thrills!. Choose the $425 Go Extreme! Ride and you’ll fly this little stunt plane for about 80% of the time you're in the air – even if you’ve never flown a plane before. Back on ground, you’ll get a videotape of yourself flying the plane through rolls and other acrobatic stunts. SkyThrills!, in Fullerton, California, offers tamer rides, too.
