Fantasy of Flight

Not really one for young children, but a must if you are an aircraft enthusiast.

It is one of the largest privately owned collections of aircraft in the world. The aim of the owner, Kermit Weeks, is to restore all his planes to working condition.

All are restored to their original specifications using, where possible, the authentic materials with which they were originally built.

When weather permits, there is a flying display of one of the restored planes.

Will post some pictures in the photo gallery.

Often saw this advertised, and wondered if you could do flights in any of the aircraft, does he do this??

Is there anywhere in the Orlando area that does this sort of thing??

Look forward to seeing the photos.

Unfortunately he does not take passengers up in the aircraft!

My brother in law went to Fantasy Of Flight last October and had a flight in a bi-plane. Not one of the museum pieces but a modern day version, so you can get flights from there. Would love to try it myself.
