FLIGHTS BACK IN TIME

1929 NEW STANDARD BIPLANE

Lucky barnstorming history buffs, aviation buffs, and kids of all ages will have the opportunity to step back to the Roaring 20's and take a ride in an authentic barnstorming airplane! Barnstormer Joe Kittinger will make this an experience of a lifetime. You will truly be "stepping back in time!" The 1929 New Standard aircraft used for this wonderful experience was conceived and built to fill the need of a 1920's barnstorming group, the Gates Flying Circus. They needed an aircraft capable of carrying passengers from farmer's fields. The New Standard D-25 filled the need perfectly. Its unusually large size allowed the New Standard to carry 4 to 5 passengers in the front cockpit with the pilot in the rear cockpit. Because of its maneuverability and load carrying capabilities the New Standard became popular with crop dusters in the 40's and 50's. This is the only original New Standard D25 left flying in the world today. New Standard D-25 Engine Type: Wright J-6-7 Horse Power: 225 hp Wing Span: 45 ft Stall Speed: 37 mph Payload: 1400 lbs.
