Item Description

Take to the skies! One hour sightseeing flight for two in a Grumman Tiger airplane.

If you love New York City on the ground, you must see it from the air. Your host is an FAA certificated, instrument rated private pilot with over 1,500 hours of experience in the course of 20 years. Flight will depart from Linden Airport in New Jersey (about 5 miles south of Newark) and includes a flight up the Hudson River as well as other local points of interest.

Testimonial from 2012 'Take to the Skies' winner, Judith Dahill:

"This airplane ride was exciting, thrilling and I want to win it again. Not only was David an expert flier but he is the nicest, most accommodating and interesting man to fly with. He told me that he loves flying, and has been flying for years; so when he take people to fly, their experience enhances his flight plans and brings an added pleasure to flying for him.

For me it was so beautiful to see the Atlantic shore, the architecture of NYC, and fly up the Hudson River to CT. I felt as though I could touch the clouds, the sea, the city and the mountains. I felt as though I was a bird."

**Pilot is PS11 Dad, Dave Halpern!
