Though Leonardo da Vinci designed functional flying machines in the Renaissance, it took until the 20th century for inventors to devise the aviator goggles needed to look stylish in them. Celebrate the history of flight with today's Groupon: for $179, you get a 45-minute vintage-fighter-plane ride for two from Boston Warbird Rides in Mansfield.

A pilot skillfully navigates a 1950 L-17 fighter plane over the New England landscape, giving passengers an unrivaled view of the lush hills and angst-stricken poets below. Before taking off, a preflight inspection ensures that the cockpit is secure and stowaway clouds are thrown out onto the runway. The pilot then explains each control's functionality while covering the basics of the flight-deck instruments. Once airborne, riders can gaze over the lush New England landscape while snapping photos and even snag the altitude stick for a lesson in amateur piloting as the aircraft glides by clouds under the watchful eye of the pilot. Though today's deal is for two, a third passenger may be added at an additional charge.

The Groupon Guide to: Limousines

Limousines are high-class luxury vehicles full of superstars, and like the saying goes, "If you're going to be part of the limo nation/You'd better have some info-mation." Here's a guide to what you can expect to find on the inside of any given limo:

  • Men in suits being used as chairs by men in tuxedos
  • A woman screaming because her head is sticking out of the top of a moving vehicle
  • Neon lights that spell out "Wear Your Seatbelt"
  • Flat-screen TVs showing the famous scene where Herbie kisses Steph the Limo in The Love Bug
  • Bar stocked with Vroom vodka, the only alcohol designed to meet the specific needs of people who are in a limo on their way somewhere
  • VCR
  • Partition to keep the driver from hearing you wonder aloud if commoners are actually the happy ones
  • Tinted windows to keep light from shining onto the passengers' soft, wet eyes
  • A toilet that flushes with champagne instead of water

Why is that limousine screaming?
