No report, sorry, but whenever there is an opportunity to fly in an open cockpit airplane, I would take it!

Pablo, Big Sis and her hubby flew it in a few mos. ago and LOVED it.
We kept seeing it flying all over the island so it appears to be popular.

C Up up and awayyyyyyy.

My husband and I are going to Kauai in Oct. and are considering doing the red bi-plane over a helicopter. Does anyone know if there is a problem taking pictures in one as opposed to a helicopter?

Was in Kauai last week and the wife and I took a ride in the Waco. Had a fantastic flight. Seen several whales.
However, having takin Heli tours also, I have to say the visability is not anywhere near as good in the Biplane as in a Heli. The struts, guy wires, and upper and lower wing limit your view. If your in the left hand seat you will have to streach to get views of the Na Pali coast. And even then you will have trouble seeing from the bottom to top. Its was more the thrill of the open cockpit, the wind, and the low rumble of that engine along with the views you CAN see that made it worth the $$ for me.
