Nostalgic Wings, LLC operates a true time machine, a flying
piece of aviation history: a 1929 Curtiss Wright Travelair
E-4000 open cockpit biplane, powered by the reliable 220hp
Continental Radial. We acquired this aircraft in 1995, professionally
restored it down to every last nut and bolt, and went into
business in 1997.
The Travelair is a three place, open cockpit biplane, in
which two passengers sit in the front cockpit and the pilot
flies from the back. Light on the controls and carrying
six hours of fuel, it is a true joy to fly. This single
aircraft has provided memorable experiences for thousands
of passengers, many first time flyers, and even brought
a few tears to the eyes of veterans who had not flown since
World War II. Young and old alike enjoy this experience.
