Detailed Description (attach additional information if needed)


Will Pastron has been a pilot for 20 years and has accumulated nearly 1,400 hours of flight time.  He holds a Commercial license, with Instrument and Multi-engine ratings.  He has flown small planes and business jets.  Will has had specific training in "aerobatics", and has flown in aerobatic competition.  These days he flies the Pitts (model S2B) exclusively.  The Pitts is a classic Bi-plane, built of tube steel, wood and fabric.  Based on an open cockpit design (this model has a "canopy") from the ‘40's, the plane is small and powerful [read more in Wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pitts_Special ].  You design the flight - a low-key scenic ride, or an exhilarating aerobatic flight, or anything in between!  Passenger weight limit: 200 pounds.
