Funnest plane to fly in RealLife as a Passenger

Recommended Posts

Been a while since I've been up in a relatively small plane. Thinking of paying for a short flight this summer, either I will pay for a "tourism flight" or use a CC miles card to reduce cost to a small airport, then find a short "hop flight" to a more major place where I can rent a car.

Any suggestions on what to look for or what type of plane, that someone might consider a "bucket list ride"?

I will probably be flying out of TN area or around there. I guess I could also pay for a float plane ride.

Little things are fun (because they are noisy and they rattle). Old things are fun (think DHC Beaver); add floatplanes are fun to that (because, well, they operate from water). Lastly, helicopters are fun; more so if you can sit in the front. 

My first heli trip had the pilot do a roll-over, go into steep dive then pull straight up before levelling off again. I was in the from, pilot asked my if I noticed my mother frothing at the mouth. I said no. He did it again. And to think that was a commercial flight ... 😂
