What's the charge for a plane ride these days?

[keithrichard]

I'm talking like very small like a seaplane taking you up for a short scenic ride. I used to take these with buddies for something like 10 bucks a ride. Probably ten times that now.

No idea - just know what they get up in Alaska on excursions taking you for for like 45 minutes and it’s like $400 plus tip. Of course that’s tourist pricing.

Hard enough to get me into a large aircraft - no way in hell I’m getting in to a tiny little aircraft or helicopter.

If you want to take a smaller plane you probably want to fly private which is expensive

Last time I did this was during a vacation in Vegas 10 years ago. Paid a private pilot (not someone doing it as a business) $150 each to fly us out to the dam and "around" Vegas.

Keith, If you're an illegal immigrant, I hear you can get a free plan ride from ICE to El Salvador.
Just a thought. If not illegal, you may have to pay a few hundred.

We can look it up if you are okay mentioning the place, Keith.

Might try Aloha airlines.

Nice scenic open air view and they take you back to the airport about 15 minutes after take off

I would definitely recommend holding on to your stuff though and using the seat belt - gets a bit windy in there when they open the sunroof.

Excellent song - always liked Stephen Stills.

I'd like to do a helicopter before I die.
