Happy Independence Day, everyone! 🇺🇸

Freedom is one of the greatest gifts we have, and as an aviator, it's something I appreciate every time I take to the skies. The freedom to fly is a privilege that reminds me of the courage and sacrifices made by those who came before us.

Wishing everyone a safe and memorable Fourth of July. Enjoy the celebrations, cherish your loved ones, and never take our freedoms for granted.

Visit us at www.gobiplanerides.com and come experience the freedom of flight aboard our historic 1930 New Standard biplane!

Today, Full House turns 96 years old.
On June 26, 1930, N928V, a D-25 New Standard, was born in Paterson, New Jersey. Ninety-six years later, Full House is still doing exactly what she was designed and built to do—sharing the love of the sky and creating memories that last a lifetime.
The first photo is of Full House with Jim Hammond, his mother, my dad John, and me. The second photo is from the day Full House officially became a certified aircraft. Take a look at the address on that certificate. Years ago, I took an Uber to that very location just to see where she began. I stood where the old New Standard factory once operated and took a few photos, imagining what it must have been like in 1930.
Over the past 96 years, Full House has traveled countless miles and touched countless lives. I've been fortunate enough to serve as her caretaker for the last 10 years, and it's been one of the greatest honors of my life to share her with the world.
Today, only eight D-25 New Standards remain flying—including Full House. It's not a big family, but it's a very special one.
Happy 96th Birthday, Full House. Here's to many more years of open cockpits, smiling faces, and keeping the spirit of barnstorming alive.

Courtney Hale Caillouet captures some of the best photos of me flying the New Standard. Courtney has been one of those special friends who never hesitates to jump in and help with whatever is needed to keep the spirit of barnstorming alive.

This beautiful **1930 D-25 New Standard**, affectionately known as **"Full House,"** is one of only eight flying in the world today. I gave her that name because she can literally carry a house full of people on her shoulders—four passengers at a time.

From young kids experiencing their first open-cockpit flight to adults reliving aviation's golden age, everyone is welcome aboard.

Full House is also unique as the only Continental-powered D-25 flying today. Her seven-cylinder radial engine produces 220 horsepower from an impressive 670 cubic inches, delivering the unmistakable sound and character that make these aircraft so special.

Every flight is a chance to share a piece of aviation history, and friends like Courtney help preserve those moments for future generations.
