Mark recently got to shoot air to air with FlyWaco, part of the Fighter Pilot Adventure Flights group.
While appearing to be a vintage biplane, the Waco Classic YMF-5 is a modern build and offers a seductive combination of performance, style and exclusivity. Even with this exalted pedigree, the WACO represents a new pinnacle for the marquee: it has been sharpened, refined and rethought in every detail. The result is an aircraft that offers thrilling levels of performance together with luxurious accommodation for three people.
