Enjoy the Beer, Food, Music & Vintage Aircraft! Thank you for your support.
Another crisp clear night with a mild breeze greeted our pilots and passengers yesterday…”Chamber of Commerce Weather”. Everybody had a good time, and both pilot’s were complimented more than once on their smooth flights and landings.
Mr. Bob Pryor (far right) joined with his sons-in-law, Cecil Fellows (r to l) and David Bishop in a night flight piloted by James Martin. Mr. Pryor, who flew in the co-pilot’s seat tonight, is an infantry veteran of World War II, and we thank him for his service.
Ms Kyndall Blagrave and Mr. Ethan Lewis smile after their “solo” ride. Ethan had flown on Wednesday night with his family and just had to come back for another ride.
Mr. Glen Rasco celebrated a birthday surprise from his wife, Susan, with a Christmas Night Flight by James Martin. The couple is from Iraan, and Glen really thought he was coming to HSW for a beer tasting. Susan did a good job of keeping the secret.
Pilot Daniel Rathburn hosted the largest flight of the night. (l to r) Ms. LaVon Darville, Jack and Carmen Kenner, and Anne and Mark Darville. Mark, who flew in the co-pilot’s seat this evening, is an avid collector of WW II memorabilia and is looking forward to visiting the new Midland Army Air Field Museum when it opens in February.
Last night customers both young and old were once again greeted with a cloudless night with mild winds, perfect for taking in the beautiful “Christmas-scape” of Midland-Odessa from our C-45, The Spirit of West Texas.
Pilot Daniel Rathburn and the “Domino’s Crew”. Many thanks to Domino’s Pizza for their continual support of the High Sky Wing.
Jeff Barnes piloted this loving couple around the night skies. Rumor has it that there was a little hand-holding going on in the cabin.
Despite some questionable weather this past weekend, the Christmas Night Flights have been a big success with “every customer happy”.
