Aviation | Mesa, Arizona
Craig begins with a walkaround and the story of this World War II trainer before strapping you into the front cockpit. Then the Lycoming radial comes alive and the Arizona desert opens beneath you. Feel the wind, hear that unforgettable low roar, take the controls, and fly near the Superstition Mountains in an airplane that makes history feel wonderfully alive.
